The State and Working Women: A Comparative Study of Britain and Sweden

by Mary Ruggie

Book Overview

Mary Ruggie's controversial study of British and Swedish labor market, anti-discrimination, and child care programs argues that gender-based policy alone cannot substantially raise the economic status of women workers. Rather, policies for women must be developed within the context of more general economic and social policies.
