|
motherhood in urban China from 1982 to 2015. China once had the world''s
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
leading female labor force participation rate. Since the economic
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
reforms starting from the early 1980s, however, some mothers have been
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
withdrawing from the labor force due to diminished state support, a rise
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
in intensive parenting, and heightened work-family conflicts. Based on
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
data from the 1982, 1990, and 2000 Chinese censuses, the 2005
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
mini-census, and the 2006-2015 Chinese General Social Survey, we find
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
mothers'' non-employment increased for every educational group and grew
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
at a much faster rate among mothers than it did among fathers,
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
particularly those with small children. Moreover, the negative
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
relationships between mothers'' education and non-employment, and between
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
mothers'' family income and non-employment weakened overtime. This
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
possibly due to women with more established resources can better
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
``afford{''''} the single-earner arrangement and also more emphasize the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
importance of intensive parenting, than their less resourced
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
counterparts. These findings signal the resurgence of a gendered
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
division of labor in urban China.'
