抄録	Recent research underscores the pivotal role of gender equality in fostering human prosperity. This paper investigates how prevailing gender norms influence fertility and long-term economic growth. To this end, we develop an overlapping generations model featuring endogenous fertility and labor supply, in which both gender norms and research and development activities are explicitly incorporated. We show that conservative gender norms reduce both the fertility rate and the rate of income growth in the steady state. We further explore the impact of a policy intervention that relaxes gender norms and analyze the ensuing transition dynamics, deriving implications for policy design and welfare. Finally, we extend the model to examine how a gradual evolution in gender norms affects the long-run trajectory of the economy.
