Rövid leírás:
This is the first comparative study of the long-term development of women's part-time work in Europe and the United States.The authors analyse a wealth of longitudinal and and cross-sectional data on the work force, generating a powerful critique of the dominant equalizing and marginalizing perspectives. They argue instead that women's increasing part-time employment in modern societies must be examined in the context of the sexual division of labour within the family.

Levels of part-time work vary enormously across industrial society, from 66 per cent among women in the Netherlands to just 8 per cent among women in Greece. Part-time work was almost unknown in Eastern Europe, but is now growing rapidly in the same sectors of industry as in Western Europe and the USA.
Between Equalization and Marginalization provides a comparative analysis of the development of part-time work in Europe and the USA from 1950 onwards, using longitudinal and cross-sectional data, and reassesses the competing theories and conflicting perspectives so far offered on the growth of part-time work among women. It concludes that part-time work does not equalize women's position vis à vis full-time workers, nor does it leave women in part-time jobs wholly marginalized. Instead, it shows that part-time jobs provide new opportunities for secondary earners and play a special role in the context of the sexual division of labour in the family.
The country reports - by national experts - cover the USA, Sweden, Denmark, the Netherlands, West Germany, Britain, France, Italy, Greece, Hungary, Slovenia, and Poland. Two chapters by the editors synthesize the results and assess their theoretical implications.
an excellent overview of trends and patterns in part-time work and the explanatory factors behind woemen's labor market decisions ... refreshing reading.
