Description

Explore the complex history and development of American family leave policy with this groundbreaking hardcover from Routledge. Using an accessible case study format, this work provides a deep look into how family leave policies were formulated and implemented in the United States. Trace the evolution of these policies from their early beginnings at the state level in the 1980s through the landmark adoption of the federal Family and Medical Leave Act of 1993. This book offers a unique political economy perspective, helping readers identify the economic and social forces that impact both the modern workplace and the family unit. By drawing on original primary research, the text examines how the political system responds to these shifting issues. It is an essential resource for students, researchers, and professionals interested in the history of work, human resources, and the political forces shaping American social policy.
