abstract: 'There are large research, policy, and economic gaps between the ways US
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
researchers and policy makers address the work/family bind amongst
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
middle-class professionals and poor lone mothers. This is clearly seen
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
in US welfare reform, an important piece of work/family legislation in
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
the 1990s. The new rules make the work/family binds worse for low-income
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
mothers and do not alleviate poverty. With its clear expectation that
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
poor mothers be employed the legislation opens up new avenues to revamp
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
low-wage work for breadwinners and to socialize the costs of caring for
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
family. Closing the literature gap my help to close the policy gap,
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
which, in turn, would promote more income equality.'
