Book Description
Originally published in 1988, this book compiles a collection of works investigating the impact of recession on women’s employment. The authors argue that the most important explanation of differences in women’s experience between the countries is the form of labour market regulation and organisation. They point out that current changes in these forms of regulation, and not displacement of female labour, pose the main threat to any gains that women have made in the labour market in the post- World War II period.
