Beyond Caring Labour to Provisioning Work offers a powerful new framework for understanding women's work in a holistic sense, acknowledging both their responsibilities in supporting others as well as their employment duties.Beyond Caring Labour to Provisioning Work is based on a four-year, multi-site study of women who are members of contemporary community organizations. The authors reveal the complex ways in which these women define and value their own work, investigating what supports and constrains their individual and collective efforts. Calling on the state to assist more with citizens' provisioning responsibilities, Beyond Caring Labour to Provisioning Work provides an excellent basis for new discussions on equitable and sustainable public policies.Poor womenCanadaPoor womenEmploymentCanadaPoor womenCanadaSocial conditionsWomen in community developmentCanadaInformal sector (Economics)CanadaElectronic books.Poor womenPoor womenEmploymentPoor womenSocial conditions.Women in community developmentInformal sector (Economics)331.4086/240971Neysmith Sheila, authttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut941867Neysmith SheilaMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910451862303321Beyond caring labour to provisioning work2125188UNINA
