And more often than not, those lines of demarcation are inextricable from considerations of gender. What Is Work? offers a multi-disciplinary approach to understanding labor within the highly gendered realm of household economies. Drawing from scholarship on gender history, economic sociology, family history, civil law, and feminist economics, these essays explore the changing and often contested boundaries between what was and is considered work in different Euro-American contexts over several centuries, with an eye to the ambiguities and biases that have shaped mainstream conceptions of work across all social sectors.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: GBItem Height: 229mmItem Length: 152mmContributor: Raffaella Sarti (Edited by), Anna Bellavitis (Edited by), Manuela Martini (Edited by)Genre: Society & CultureTopic: Gender Sex & Relationships, Social Sciences, Business & Finance, HistoryBook Series: International Studies in Social HistoryAuthor: Raffaella SartiRelease Year: 2018 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
