abstract: 'Work-family policy strategies reflect gendered assumptions about the
|
|
|
|
roles of men and women within families and therefore may lead to
|
|
|
|
significantly different outcomes, particularly for families headed by
|
|
|
|
single mothers. The authors argue that welfare states have adopted
|
|
|
|
strategies based on different assumptions about women''s and men''s roles
|
|
|
|
in society, which then affect women''s chances of living in poverty
|
|
|
|
cross-nationally. The authors examine how various strategies are
|
|
|
|
associated with poverty rates across groups of women and also examine
|
|
|
|
more directly the effects of specific work-family policies on poverty
|
|
|
|
rates. They find that while family benefits and child care for young
|
|
|
|
children unequivocally lower poverty rates, particularly for families
|
|
|
|
headed by a single mother long parental leaves have more ambivalent
|
|
|
|
effects. The findings suggest that it is critical to examine the
|
|
|
|
gendered assumptions underlying work-family policies rather than viewing
|
|
|
|
all work-family policies as the same.'
