Inside the Household: From Labour to Care

Susan Himmelweit

0/5 ( ratings)

"Inside the Household" traces the shift in feminist interest in the household from an earlier focus on the uneven division of domestic labor to a current emphasis on women's caring activities within the household. The articles in this collection range from classics of the 1970s analyzing domestic labor and its effects on men's and women's employment patterns, through later studies of how women's increased labor force participation impacted on the domestic division of labor, to specifically commissioned articles that introduce some of the latest thinking on the nature of women's caring labor.
