2- In this paper, I build upon the insights of feminist IPE scholarship on economic crises and social reproduction to provide a multi-scalar analysis of the gendered effects of sanctions on Iran since 2012.

3- At the policy level, the paper traces shifts in the gendered policies of the Iranian state over the last decade to analyse the patterns through which the state has sought to build resilience against sanctions-induced crises since 2012.

4- This includes key interventions in women’s productive and reproductive roles, with significant implications for gendered regimes of labour and survival in everyday life.

5- The combined direct effects of sanctions and the state’s gendered governance responses to them, I argue, have resulted in a feminisation of survival on an everyday level, where feminised informality has increasingly emerged as a survival strategy for middle-class urban households in Iran.
