This volume offers fascinating and provocative new analyses of women's status in the labor market, as it explores the debate surrounding parental leave: Do policies that mandate extended leave protect jobs and promote child welfare, or do they sidetrack women's careers and make them less desireable employees?

"The present study is concerned with the relationships within the family in order to understand what it is that holds families together as opposed to what it is that drives them apart. The technique used is to study families where one of the adults works away from home for a large part of each year [...]. These family seprarations are not caused by familial dicord, but are due to working conditions. Because they are not caused by discord I call the separations Non-discordant Marital Separations or NMS for short." (Introduction, p. 1.)

Studie naar het hedendaagse gezin. In dit onderzoek zijn gegevens verzameld over de recente wijzigingen in de Nederlandse demografie, de arbeidsparticipatie en taakverdelingen van mannen en vrouwen, faciliteiten voor de combinatie arbeid en zorg (bv. kinderopvang) en over zowel het inkomen als de koopkracht in gezinnen met kinderen. Verder aandacht voor de opvoeding: schoolkeuze, invloed van ouders op school, kinderopvang, de kosten van de school, gezinskenmerken (zoals een adoptiekind, overlijden van een ouder, enz.) in hun effecten op de opvoeding en ontwikkeling van het kind. Geconcludeerd wordt onder andere dat er veel minder standaardgezinnen zijn dan dertig jaar geleden en dat jongeren op latere leeftijd gaan samenwonen. Vervolgens wonen zij vaker ongehuwd samen dan in de zestiger jaren en wordt er minder snel aan trouwen gedacht. (Bron: website SCP)

Speaking of Sex explores a topic that too often drops out of our discussions when we speak about sex: the persistent problem of sex-based inequality and the cultural forces that sustain it. On critical issues affecting women, most Americans deny either that gender inequality is a serious problem or that it is one that they have a personal or political responsibility to address. In tracing this "no problem" problem, Speaking of Sex examines the most fundamental causes of women's disadvantages and the inadequacy of current public policy to combat them.
