Contraceptive Pill

Om episode

The contraceptive pill had profound social consequences. Everyone agrees with that. But – as Tim Harford explains – the pill wasn’t just socially revolutionary. It also sparked an economic revolution, perhaps the most significant of the late twentieth century. A careful statistical study by the Harvard economists Claudia Goldin and Lawrence Katz strongly suggests that the pill played a major role in allowing women to delay marriage, delay motherhood and invest in their own careers. The consequences of that are profound.Producer: Ben Crighton Editors: Richard Knight and Richard Vadon(Image: Oral contraceptive pill, Credit: Areeya_ann/Shutterstock)
