| Description: | Select Guide Rating Given the growing importance of Eastern European countries in the development of the EU, there is an urgent need to reconstruct the recent dynamic developments in women's work and care in these societies, and the socio-political determinants thereof. This edited collection scrutinises pivotal aspects of women''s careers in Eastern Europe, focusing on the foundations of women''s employment and its prospects. It deals in particular with whether ''standard'' theoretical approaches, mostly modelled on evidence from Western Europe, can be transferred to the analysis of Eastern European countries. |
