abstract: 'The transformation from a centrally planned economy to a market economy
involves a wide-ranging redistribution of paid employment, income, and
individual opportunities. Men and women in the former East Germany
(GDR)-who before reunification had equal roles of participation in paid
labour-have been affected in different ways by the restructuring of the
East German economy. Women are now more often unemployed, and for longer
periods, and face greater difficulties in finding a job. In order to
explain these differences between men and women, the authors investigate
the economic, social, and political dimensions of the transformation
process. The main argument is that economic and social disadvantages
affecting East German women are not just related to the economic and
political transformation as such. Rather, they are rooted in a
traditional gender division of paid work in the former GDR which was
reinforced by the paternalistic family and social policy developed by
the East German state. At the same time, however, East German women''s
experiences of being fully integrated into employment, and enjoying
greater economic independence, make it unlikely that they will easily
accept the West German model of partial labour-market integration.'
