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.Country/Region of Manufacture: GBBook Series: International Studies in Social HistoryGenre: Society & CultureTopic: Social Sciences, Gender Sex & Relationships, Business & Finance, HistoryAuthor: Raffaella SartiRelease Year: 2020 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
