内容説明

The results of household work are continually ignored in national statistics and time-use surveys show that by the exclusion of household work the official Gross Domestic Product figures are understated by at least one third. In this book contributions have been brought together in three parts that aim to give a better understanding of how households work, a wider perspective on the role of women in the household, and a discussion of the provision of income support for households. The work is intended for social scientists, especially economists, those interested in social welfare policy and all those concerned with the changing role of women and the structure of the family in society. This book is intended for students and researchers in gender studies, economics, soacila and welfare policy and the socilogy of the family.
