Brings together a collection of papers that develops a comparative analysis of the way in which women in general, and mothers and carers in particular, are affected by social policy, with the central question being in what sense is caring for frail elderly or children 'work', how should it be remunerated. Also looks at how far labour market change, particularly in trends in women's employment, has fed into social policy development.
