Book Synopsis Women and Work in Ireland by : Margret Fine-Davis
Download or read book Women and Work in Ireland written by Margret Fine-Davis and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-10-18 with total page 229 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book chronicles the evolution of women’s participation in the labour force in Ireland over the last five decades. This was largely spearheaded by married women and mothers, leading to many related social issues including childcare, flexible working, the sharing of domestic work and work-life balance. The book presents empirical data on these topics, drawn from the author’s research spanning several decades, and shows how attitudes have evolved and influenced the development of social policy. The book begins by exploring the factors which predisposed some married women to enter the workplace in the early 1970s while most did not and examines the relative well-being of housewives and employed married women. It demonstrates the effects the anti-discrimination legislation of the 1970s had on women’s perceived discrimination over time, showing that women initially denied their own discrimination. The history of childcare policy is examined from the early Government Working Party reports of the 1980s to the evolution of childcare policy in Ireland. Issues of work-life balance are presented through cross-cultural comparisons from Ireland and several European countries, and key questions are asked, such as "are men who work part-time seen as less serious about their careers?" The concluding chapter focuses on how women’s role in the workplace impacts on men and gender relations. Questions are posed concerning the ways in which men’s roles need to adapt and the extent to which workplaces and social policy also need to change to accommodate men and women’s needs for work-life balance. The book will be of interest to social scientists and to students. It will be a valuable resource for courses in the sociology of work and the family, gender studies, social psychology and Irish studies. By providing quantitative data in an accessible form, it will also provide a valuable case study for courses in social research methods.

Book excerpt: At the heart of this book is an exploration of how women negotiated their identities as workers and the very real challenges of accessing and remaining in the workplace in a sociocultural context that encouraged home-based marriage and motherhood as primary roles for women. The obstacles women encountered in relation to employment in terms of limited access to education, restricted employment opportunities and profound gender discrimination are revealed. So too are the ways in which women resisted, challenged and negotiated the limited roles prescribed during these decades. --Book Jacket.
Book Synopsis The State and Women in the Economy by : Jean Larson Pyle
Download or read book The State and Women in the Economy written by Jean Larson Pyle and published by SUNY Press. This book was released on 1990-10-30 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the effect of state policies on womens roles in the economy. At the most concrete level it investigates the relative lack of response of womens labor force activity rates to export-led development in the Republic of Ireland. At a broader level, it provides critical insights into current labor market debates regarding the causes of womens subordination and the efficacy of state policies designed to alleviate them. The book shows how the state, in addition to and interactively with the workplace and household, can maintain gender inequality. In so doing, Pyle demonstrates the usefulness of a revitalized and broader structural approach to feminist analysis.

Book Synopsis Women, Employment and the Family in the International Division of Labour by : J. Parpart
Download or read book Women, Employment and the Family in the International Division of Labour written by J. Parpart and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-07-27 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the present stage of international capitalist development, women are increasingly being drawn into paid employment by multinational and state investment in the Third World. This volume investigates the interrelations between women's participation in the urban wage economy and their productive and reproductive roles in the household and family. It brings together a selection of important recent research on all major regions of the developing world by leading scholars in this emerging field. It argues that the household itself is an important determinant of the character and timing of women's labour force participation, and it assesses the extent to which family patterns can be expected to change as women increasingly work outside the home.

Book Synopsis Gender Roles in Ireland by : Margret Fine-Davis
Download or read book Gender Roles in Ireland written by Margret Fine-Davis and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-09-15 with total page 281 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gender Roles in Ireland: three decades of attitude change documents changing attitudes toward the role of women in Ireland from 1975 to 2005, a key period of social change in this society. The book presents replicated measures from four separate surveys carried out over three decades. These cover a wide range of gender role attitudes as well as key social issues concerning the role of women in Ireland, including equal pay, equal employment opportunity, maternal employment, contraception etc. Attitudes to abortion, divorce and moral issues are also presented and discussed in the context of people’s voting behaviour in national referenda. Taken together, the data available in these studies paint a detailed and complex picture of the evolving role of women in Ireland during a period of rapid social change and key developments in social legislation. The book brings the results up to the present by including new data on current gender role issues from Margret Fine-Davis' latest research.

Download or read book A Woman's Place written by Helen Russell and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 86 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Between 1998 and 2007 almost 300,000 women joined the Irish labour market. In 2007, two out of three women were active in the labour market. The report investigates the factors laying behind the increase. The study also considers how this dramatic rise in participation has impacted on other aspects of gender equality within the labour market. Nevertheless the authors conclude that women have made significant inroads into a number of previously male-dominated occupations, but segregation by gender remains a strong feature of the Irish labour market. Comparisons across Europe suggest that Ireland falls into the group with the highest segregation alongside the UK, the Netherlands and Finland.
