| Abstract
|
:
|
Leading international scholars investigate how culture and country characteristics permeate our households and our private lives. The book introduces novel frameworks for understanding why the household remains a bastion of traditional gender relations - even when employed full-time, women everywhere still do most of the work around the house, and poor women spend more time on housework than affluent women.
