abstract: 'An accepted framework for `gendering'' the analysis of welfare regimes
compares countries by degrees of `defamilialization'' or how far their
family policies support or undermine women''s employment participation.
This article develops an alternative framework that explicitly
spotlights women''s labour market outcomes rather than policies. Using
hierarchical clustering on principal components, it groups 24
industrialized countries by their simultaneous performance across
multiple gendered employment outcomes spanning segregation and
inequalities in employment participation, intensity, and pay, with
further differences by class. The three core `worlds'' of welfare
(social-democratic, corporatist, liberal) each displays a distinctive
pattern of gendered employment outcomes. Only France diverges from
expectations, as large gender pay gaps across the educational divide -
likely due to fragmented wage-bargaining - place it with Anglophone
countries. Nevertheless, the outcome-based clustering fails to support
the idea of a homogeneous Mediterranean grouping or a singular Eastern
European cluster. Furthermore, results underscore the complexity and
idiosyncrasy of gender inequality: while certain groups of countries are
`better'' overall performers, all have their flaws. Even the Nordics fall
behind on some measures of segregation, despite narrow participatory and
pay gaps for lower- and high-skilled groups. Accordingly, separately
monitoring multiple measures of gender inequality, rather than relying
on `headline'' indicators or gender equality indices, matters.'
