dc.description.abstractWith the shift of production from agriculture to the industrial sector, females who participated in labor as "unpaid family workers" in agriculture sector until the 1950s in Turkey tried to find their place in this new sector by migrating from rural to urban areas. Economically, it is important that females who were "invisible" being spatially restricted to home and supplied their labor within these boundaries, are included in the labor market by providing the necessary qualifications for production with this development. Considering that economic growth is directly related to the labor used in production, the employment of females has various consequences for economic growth. The aim of this chapter is to analyze the relationship between female labor and economic growth, and to investigate whether the outcome is politically supported by the regulations in the policy-making process. The relationship between female employment and economic growth will be discussed according to the sectoral distribution for the period between 1991 and 2016. The relevance of female employment to economic growth in the political sphere will be evaluated on the basis of the legal regulations made during the years under analysis and the government development plans covering the period. The contribution of this chapter to the literature is expected to be twofold: updating past literature with current data and providing a multidimensional analysis of female employment through economic and political analyses. © Peter Lang AG 2019.
