Models of the family in modern societies

ideals and realities

"This book reports on two comparative nationally representative surveys of men and women in Britain and Spain, two countries chosen to illustrate the diversity of modern European societies.

Catherine Hakim presents a study of ideal models of the family and family roles, work orientations, patriarchal values, and lifestyle preferences, showing how these impact on women's marital histories, fertility, employment patterns, occupational segregation, and labour mobility, but not on men's labour market participation. The analyses demonstrate that political and religious values have virtually no connection with orientations to employment and family roles.

The book also covers educational homogamy, housing classes and contrasts between ethnic minority groups in core values and labour market participation."--Jacket.
