Title
Women, Work, and Politics: The Political Economy of Gender Inequality (The Institution for Social and Policy Studies),New
Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
Looking at women's power in the home, in the workplace, and in politics from a political economy perspective, Torben Iversen and Frances Rosenbluth demonstrate that equality is tied to demand for women's labor outside the home, which is a function of structural, political, and institutional conditions. They go on to explain several anomalies of modern gender politics: why women vote differently from men; why women are better represented in the workforce in the United States than in other countries but less well represented in politics; why men share more of the household work in some countries than in others; and why some countries have such low fertility rates.The first book to integrate the microlevel of families with the macrolevel of national institutions, Women, Work, and Politics presents an original and groundbreaking approach to gender inequality.
