Description

Care work, encompassing both paid and unpaid labor, is a fundamental driver of well-being, social development, and economic growth. This volume, part of the Routledge/UNRISD Research in Gender and Development series, examines how the costs of providing care are distributed unequally across different genders and social classes. Building on feminist scholarship regarding welfare provisioning and welfare regimes, this book provides a conceptually strong and empirically grounded analysis of care. It challenges traditional boundaries by rethinking the distinctions between the public and private spheres, as well as the connections that exist between them. While much previous analysis has focused on post-industrial contexts, this research addresses how these dynamics function in other parts of the world, offering a broader perspective on the global political and social economy of care.
