Description: |
Single mothers are seen in different ways around the industrialized world: as mothers, workers or an uneasy combination of the two. This collection explores variations in state policy, labour markets and the status of single mothers. |
Synopsis: |
Single mothers caring for dependent children are an important and increasing population in industrialized countries. In some, single mothers are seen primarily as mothers and few have paid work; in others, they are regarded as workers and most have paid work; and sometimes they are seen as an uneasy combination of the two with varying proportions taking up paid work.; This edited collection explores these variations, focusing on the interaction between dominant discourses around single motherhood, state policies towards single mothers, the structure of the labour market at national and local levels, and neighbourhood supports and constraints. |
