Description

This is Volume II of fifteen in the Sociology of Gender and the Family series. First published in 1965, this study looks at the employment of married women as is a social issue with many of its aspects calling for practical solutions and involving policy decisions and seeks to address the fact that the problem has so far mostly been studied from a practical angle and under the pressure of immediate needs.

Description

As increased access to employment and educational opportunities brought dramatic changes to women's lives, sociologists began to look at the effect of women's changing roles on their children and families. Based on empirical investigations and personal experience, the studies included here set out to establish patterns and regularities in social behaviour, and to understand the social roles of kinship groups, mothers, wives, children and the elderly. This set contains classic works by Parsons and Myrdal.
