      abstract = {This volume presents current research on gender studies in  the specific context of the knowledge economy. Featuring  contributions from the 2017 Annual Ipazia, the Scientific  Observatory for Gender Studies Workshop on Gender, this  book investigates gender issues and female entrepreneurship  from social, economic, corporate, organizational, and  management perspectives, with particular emphasis on  advancing the understanding of gender in business and  economic research.   The post-industrial knowledge economy  is characterized by an emphasis on human capital as the  real engine of sustainable growth and development. With  women comprising an increasing share of the global  workforce, gender studies play a central role in exploring  and understanding the attitudes and skills of women in  business and their impact on economic and social  development. Gender inequality in public and private  contexts is decreasing due to an increase of women in  leadership roles in business, the expansion and diversity  of females in education, and a larger presence of women in  policymaking roles. Ipazia, the Scientific Observatory for  Gender Studies, aims to define an updated framework of  research, service and projects on women and gender  relations to highlight the evolution of gender in business  and economics. This volume features contributions on  female-owned family business, gender diversity in  organizations, gender capital, and immigration from the  2017 Ipazia workshop.},
