Description
In most large scale analyses of the world-economy, the basic building blocks of economies -- households -- are forgotten. This volume is a reminder to researchers of the crucial link between individual household behaviour, the state, and the world-economy. A group of distinguished American and European scholars have brought their work together in this book to present the first world-systems analysis of the household. Drawing together literature from fields as diverse as macro-economic processes and women's and family studies, this book links the structure of the world labour force to the functioning of the world-economy.
