| Sumario: | The aim of this paper is to use the analytical tools of feminist economics and game theory in order to analyse bills like PLC 130/11. The originality of the work is to discuss the pros and cons of punitive public policies to combat gender discrimination in the labour market, as well as the effectiveness and limits of the practical applicability of such measures based on the analysis of three scenarios modelled by the game. We conclude that proposing public policies without effectively debating their impacts and/or which would be the most adequate paths to promote gender equity is a mistake that may generate even more harmful social effects than those currently experienced by women. |
