Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. `Underneath the numbers, a philosophical judgement is always being made based on values, not facts.'Thirty years ago Marilyn Waring's groundbreaking book Counting for Nothing was released. Waring explained, through meticulous economic analysis, how the success of the global economy rests on women's unpaid work. Counting for Nothing became a phenomenon: it was read and discussed around the world, and even made into a film.Today, many people hope that the shift to a wellbeing approach - moving beyond narrow economic indicators when assessing New Zealand's progress - will mean women's work is finally valued fairly. But what does Marilyn Waring make of it? This short book provides an essential assessment of wellbeing economics from a leading feminist scholar.

Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. When I entered Parliament in 1975, I joined a very small club: although women in New Zealand won the right to vote in 1893, only a tiny handful had been Members of Parliament in the hundred or so years that followed. I was number 15! In 1975, Marilyn Waring was elected to the New Zealand Parliament as the MP for Raglan. Aged just 23, she was one of only a few female MPs who served through the turbulent years of Muldoon's government. For nine years, Waring was at the centre of major political decisions, until her parliamentary career culminated during the debate over nuclear arms. When Waring informed Muldoon that she intended to cross the fl oor and vote for the opposition bill which would make New Zealand nuclear free, he called a snap election. And the government fell. . . This is an autobiographical account of Waring's extraordinary years in parliament. She tells the story of her journey from being elected as a new National Party MP in a conservative rural seat to being publicly decried by the Prime Minister for her `feminist anti-nuclear stance' that threatened to bring down his government. Her tale of life in a male-dominated and relentlessly demanding political world is both uniquely of its time and still of pressing relevance today. This is an autobiographical account of Marilyn Waring's extraordinary years in parliament.

Paperback. Zustand: Good. There are books that set out to explain the world, and then there are books that quietly point out that the world, as currently explained, might be missing rather a lot. Counting for Nothing ? What Men Value and What Women Are Worth (1988) by Marilyn Waring belongs firmly in the latter camp: a deceptively approachable work that takes the tidy columns of economic thought and asks, with admirable persistence, why so much of human life has been left out of the calculation. Waring, an economist with the unsettling habit of asking obvious questions, turns her attention to the ways in which national accounting systems measure value?only to discover that vast swathes of activity, particularly those traditionally carried out by women, have been politely ignored. Childcare, domestic labour, community work: all essential, all time-consuming, and all, apparently, worth precisely nothing when it comes to official figures. It?s the sort of revelation that is either deeply illuminating or mildly inconvenient, depending on how attached one is to the existing system. What follows is a clear, thoughtful, and occasionally wry exploration of how economies decide what counts, and what doesn?t. Waring doesn?t so much shout as persist, building a case that feels less like an argument and more like a gradual realisation. By the time you?ve finished, you may find yourself looking at everyday activities?cooking dinner, raising children, keeping things running?and wondering how they ever slipped beneath the radar of value in the first place. Published by Allen & Unwin in 1988, this is very much a book of its time, and also rather inconveniently of ours. The ideas have aged with a kind of quiet confidence, continuing to hover just to one side of mainstream thinking, waiting patiently for someone to take them seriously again. It is, in short, the sort of book that doesn?t date so much as linger. This particular copy is listed as Good , which in Crappy Old Books terms suggests a life that has included being opened, considered, and possibly used to win an argument or two. The cover may show some wear, the spine may have softened, and the pages may carry the faint signs of previous readers who paused, perhaps, at moments of recognition. Nothing dramatic?just the reassuring evidence that the book has been doing its job. Not quite a polemic, not quite a textbook, and certainly not content to sit quietly in the background, Counting for Nothing is the kind of book that subtly rearranges your assumptions while appearing to do nothing more than explain a few accounting principles. A thoughtful, quietly subversive addition to any shelf, and an excellent way to demonstrate that you are, at the very least, willing to question how value is measured?even if you still occasionally forget to do the washing up.…
