| Sommario/riassunto: | This volume pierces the skin of arguments and legislation to grasp the preconceptions that have shaped the experience of women: a ""gendered imagination"" that has defined what men and women alike think of as fair and desirable. The role of the breadwinner is investigated as a prime example. |
