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.The first book to integrate the micro-level of families with the macro-level of national institutions, Women, Work, and Politics presents an original and groundbreaking approach to gender inequality. 410 0$aYale ISPS series. 606 $aWomen$xPolitical activity$zUnited States 606 $aWomen and democracy$zUnited States 606 $aWomen$xEconomic conditions$zUnited States 606 $aWomen$xEmployment$zUnited States 606 $aSexual division of labor 615 0$aWomen$xPolitical activity 615 0$aWomen and democracy 615 0$aWomen$xEconomic conditions 615 0$aWomen$xEmployment 615 0$aSexual division of labor. 676 $a305.420973 700 $aIversen$b Torben$0118115 701 $aRosenbluth$b Frances McCall$0254544 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910779237703321 996 $aWomen, work, and politics$93670900 997 $aUNINA
