Description

Available Open Access under CC-BY-NC licence. Single parents face a triple bind of inadequate resources, employment, and policies, which in combination further complicate their lives. This book - multi-disciplinary and comparative in design - shows evidence from over 40 countries, along with detailed case studies of Sweden, Iceland, Scotland, and the UK. It covers aspects of well-being that include poverty, good quality jobs, the middle class, wealth, health, children s development and performance in school, and reflects on social justice. Leading international scholars challenge our current understanding of what works and draw policy lessons on how to improve the well-being of single parents and their children. Review This excellent collection addresses the `triple bind' of inadequate resources, employment, and policies for single mothers, and what this means for well-being. A thoughtful and innovative analysis. --Jane Millar, University of Bath An excellent contribution: evidence and insight from top-notch analysts on one of our most important and difficult policy challenges. --Lane Kenworthy, University of California About the Author Dr. Rense Nieuwenhuis is an assistant professor at the Swedish Institute for Social Research (SOFI) of Stockholm University.

She is affiliated with LIS Cross-National Data Center and Stone Center on Socio-Economic Inequality at the Graduate Center, City University of New York.
