Hari ini saya membaca tulisan menarik dari harian Financial Times yang
dikutip oleh blog Economist View.

Hal menarik dari tulisan tersebut adalah: "Dari mana datangnya
pertumbuhan ekonomi dunia pada 35 tahun terakhir ini?"  Kebanyakan
orang akan menjawab - pertumbuhan ekonomi Jepang, atau pertumbuhan
ekonomi Amerika, atau pertumbuhan ekonomi China.  Yang lain mungkin
menduga bahwa semua itu didorong oleh telekomunikasi atau Internet.

Dalam tulisan Aude Zieseniss de Thuin, faktor paling utama pendorong
ekonomi dunia selama 35 terakhir ini adalah:  keterlibatan kaum wanita
di sektor ekonomi..!  Keterlibatan di sini lebih luas daripada sekadar
wanita sebagai konsumen atau pihak yang paling banyak menentukan
belanja rumah tangga -- melainkan juga posisi wanita sebagai produsen
kegiatan ekonomi.

Berikut tulisan yang dimaksud:

Women are drivers of global growth,
by Aude Zieseniss de Thuin,

Financial Times: What do growth, expansion and prosperity have in
common? In French grammar they are feminine and when it comes to facts
and figures they are feminine as well. Forget China, India and even
new technologies ­ for the past 10 yeears the number one vector for
global growth has been women.

Since 1970, women have held TWO out of THREE new jobs. According to
The Economist, the arrival of this new workforce has done more to
encourage global growth than increases in capital investment and
improvements in productivity. Over the last 10 years the increase in
women [in the workplace] in developed countries has made more of a
contribution to global growth than China has, concludes the British
weekly.

Let us look at France and the US. The female workforce is growing at
an increasingly rapid rate. At the beginning of the 1950s, 7m women
held a paying job in France, or about a third of the working
population. Today women make up 47 per cent of the workforce. A
similar scenario applies to Sweden, the UK and the US, where a third
of women of working age were employed in 1950 and two-thirds today.
.... The same trend is now also visible in emerging countries.
Southeast Asia's economic success is due primarily to women, who hold
two-thirds of the jobs in the export industry, the region's most
dynamic sector.

So, will the workplace, where women have long fought for their
rightful place, become woman's domain? One thing is certain: women's
rise in power, which is linked to the increase in wealth per capita,
is happening in all domains and at all levels of society. Women are
.... increasingly becoming directors, managers and entrepreneurs. Some
studies have even shown a correlation between the presence of women in
managerial positions and a company's financial results.

This is just the beginning. The phenomenon will only grow as girls
prove to be more successful than boys in the school system and enrol
in higher numbers in universities. For a number of observers, we have
already entered the age of "womenomics", the economy as thought out
and practised by women. Those Chinese who desire that their only child
be male may soon realise that a daughter could be a better investment.
Bosses know full well that a team of both men and women is more
creative and efficient than one comprised of only men.

But perhaps we are getting ahead of ourselves. Despite their
irrevocable rise in power, women remain under- utilised... Even in
countries where there are a large number of women doctors, lawyers and
high-level executives, they represent only a small percentage of
surgeons, partners and chief executives. It is true that the "glass
ceiling" that prevents women from reaching the highest echelons is
also, in part, in their heads. Indeed, women seek happiness and an
equilibrium in their activities more than men and often find
themselves turning down responsibilities, citing the sacrifice it
could mean for their family life.

We could say that the judicial progress made, such as the recent
French law requiring equal pay for men and women in the workplace, is
merely an opener for the work to come. If society wants to benefit
from women's resources ..., they must create social protections to
neutralise the effects of interruptions in the career path or offer
the choice to accept fewer professional obligations than a male
counterpart.

"Womenomics" is not, as some would claim, a passing fad, but rather a
lasting trend. Women are on centre stage when it comes to all vital
issues: healthcare, education, the environment and demography. As
women today are reaching positions of power in massive numbers, their
responsibility towards the progress of society is growing. Women want
to assume this role and they will.
