Abstract
This article compares the potential for self-employment to facilitate women's economic empowerment with traditional options for women's economic self-sufficiency. It concludes that self-employment programs are potentially subversive to patriarchy and the state be cause through them, low-income women can gain independence from male dominance in the home and the workplace and from the collective male control of the social welfare system.
