The main objective of this research article is to explore the impacts of globalisation on gender empowerment. Here, the question addresses that how far globalisation as an economic process is gender neutral? Has it weakened patriarchy and created greater employment opportunities and greater equality for women? There is a need for an assessment and theoretical consideration from the feminist and socialist standpoint, since the bourgeois/ non-feminist scholarship makes invisible both the class and gender dimensions of the dynamics of power and capital distribution. More specifically, the paper attempts to trace how these policies have impacted on women's access to employment, their enjoyment of social rights and empowerment as far as globalisation and its impact on women at large is concerned.
