{"product_id":"women-work-and-politics-torben-iversen-9780300171341","title":"Women, Work, and Politics: The Political Economy of Gender Inequality","description":"\u003cp\u003eLooking at women's power in the home, in the workplace, and in politics from a political economy perspective, Torben Iversen and Frances Rosenbluth demonstrate that equality is tied to demand for women's labor outside the home, which is a function of structural, political, and institutional conditions. They go on to explain several anomalies of modern gender politics: why women vote differently from men; why women are better represented in the workforce in the United States than in other countries but less well represented in politics; why men share more of the household work in some countries than in others; and why some countries have such low fertility rates. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe first book to integrate the micro-level of families with the macro-level of national institutions, \u003ci\u003eWomen, Work, and Politics\u003c\/i\u003e presents an original and groundbreaking approach to gender inequality.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Torben Iversen, Frances McCall Rosenbluth\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 030017134X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780300171341\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Yale University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/30\/2011\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 224\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.65lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 5.80w x 0.60d\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Torben Iversen","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44072608203007,"sku":"9780300171341","price":33.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_bcd8bf9f-6724-4120-a690-1314ced1ae10.jpg?v=1685442989","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/women-work-and-politics-torben-iversen-9780300171341","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
