Description: This text looks at what constitutes "progress" in gender relations. Focusing on the UK and France. It contradicts the idea that encouraging women's increased insertion into employment is the best strategy for achieving progress in gender relations, with a new focus on changing men's work patterns.
Synopsis: This text looks at what constitutes "progress" in gender relations. The book shows that French women, although having more full time and continuous careers and greater social policy support, retain as great a responsibility for unpaid domestic and caring work as their British counterparts. It contradicts the assertion that encouraging women's increased insertion into employment is the best strategy for achieving progress in gender relations, with a new focus on changing men's work patterns.
