Dear John,

Countries that embrace economic freedom are more likely to have gender norms that treat men and women more equally. That's the finding of a new study published by the Fraser Institute today.

It finds that in countries with higher levels of economic freedom, people are less likely to subscribe to social norms that prioritize men over women in education, the labour force, and political leadership.

In more economically free jurisdictions, the government permits individuals to make more of their own economic decisions — what to buy, what to sell, where to work, how to run a business, and so on.

Specifically, in countries with greater levels of economic freedom, people are less likely to agree with the following three statements:

"When jobs are scarce, men have more right to a job than women." "Men make better political leaders than women do." "University is more important for a man than a woman."

Sincerely,

Niels Veldhuis
