The first book to study women's poverty over the life course, this wideranging collection focuses on the economic condition of single mothers and single elderly womenwhile also considering partnered women and immigrantsin eight wealthy but diverse countries: Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, Sweden, the United Kingdom, and the United States.In a rich analysis of labor market and social welfare sectors, Gertrude Schaffner Goldberg and a team of outstanding international contributors conclude that both livingwage employment and government provision of adequate benefits and services are necessary if lone women are to achieve a socially acceptable living standard. Taken together, the chapters extend a feminist critique of welfare state theories and chart nations' disparate progress against poverty probing, for instance, how Sweden emerged a leader in the prevention of women's poverty while the United States continues to lag.By identifying the social and economic policies that enable women to live independently, Poor Women in Rich Countries provides nothing less than a blueprint for abolishing women's poverty.
