It analyzes data drawn from large-scale time use surveys carried out under the auspices of the United Nations Research Institute for Social Development (UNRISD).

The Fourth Women's Budget
" ... focuses primarily on local governmental budgets, with the first part of the book containing a thorough analysis of women in local government budgets as well as case studies of five municipalities -- Lusikisiki, Greater Middleburg, Port Elizabeth, greater Lebowakgomo and Cape Town. The authors consider expenditure from the point of view of gender-specific allocations, equal opportunity/affirmative action allocations and the impact of mainstream expenditure. In Part 2 ... up-to-date gender-disaggregated statistics on employment are also given. ... in Part 3, donor funding to the government is evaluated to see to what extent donors promote gender issues and support women-friendly projects and initiatives."--Cover, p.[4].
Money Matters
This series, published by the Institute for Democracy in South Africa (IDASA), is the first serious local attempt to examine the gender impact of key aspects of the budget in that country. The series does not describe a separate budget for women; rather it is an examination of all programmes, policies and allocated funds in the national budget of the country for their impact on women. Each book analyses the budget votes of the different government bodies and ministries. The series serve as essential reading for anyone interested in the transformation of South African society, and the understanding it offers of budget processes can be applied to similar deliberations in societies within Africa and around the world. Content is based on chapters from The Women's Budget and The Second Women's Budget. It serves as a summary and brief analysis.
