Free Download Enrique Mayer, "The Articulated Peasant Household Economies in the Andes"
English | 2001 | pages: 409 | ISBN: 081333716X | PDF | 39,6 mb
Based on Enrique Mayer’s 30 years of research in Peru, this collection of new and revised essays presents in one accessible volume Mayer’s most significant statements on Andean peasant economies from pre-colonial times to the present. The Articulated Peasant is therefore noteworthy as a sustained examination of household economies through changing historical circumstances, while considering also the relationship of the environment to systems of land use, agricultural production, and economic exchange among ecological zones. Though the volume stresses the Andean context, its relevancy is wider. It will resonate with those who are struggling with issues of survival and development in Latin America or elsewhere where units of production and consumption are largely household based. This book is well suited for courses in Andean studies, economic anthropology, human ecology, peasants, and development.

Free Download and Henry Chen Carolyn J. Hill, Harry J. Holzer, "Against the Tide: Household Structure, Opportunities, and Outcomes among White and Minority Youth"
English | 2009 | pages: 193 | ISBN: 0880993413 | PDF | 0,6 mb
Hill, Harry J. Holzer (both public policy, Georgetown U.), and Henry Chen (business, Harvard U.) test the theory that the high rates of crime and incarceration, teen pregnancy, and unmarried parenthood among black and Hispanic youth is caused by the increasing proportion of these children growing up in female-headed households. They do indeed find a correlation, and suggest public policy to promote healthy marriages, more positive non-custodial fatherhood, higher incomes for working single parents, better schooling or employment options, safer neighborhoods, and better child care and parenting.

Free Download Re-negotiating Gender: Household Division of Labor when She Earns More than He Does By Lake Lui (auth.)
2013 | 154 Pages | ISBN: 9400748477 | PDF | 1 MB
In Chinese societies where both "money" and "gender" confer power, can a woman’s economic success relative to her husband’s bring about a more equal division of household labor? Lui’s qualitative study of "status-reversed" Hong Kong families, wherein wives earn more than their husbands, examines how couples re-negotiate household labor in ways that perpetuate male dominance within the family even when the traditional gender expectation that "men rule outside, women rule inside" (nanzhuwai, nuzhunei) is challenged. Going beyond the dyadic negotiation of household labor, this important study also explores the role of "third parties," namely the couples’ children and parents, who actively encourage couples to conform to traditional gender norms, thereby reproducing an unequal division of household labor. Based upon the experiences of families with stay-at-home dads, Lui further identifies a new mechanism of deconstructing gender, by which couples concertedly construct new norms of "work" and "gender" that they maintain through daily interactions to fit their atypical relative earnings. As a result, there are sparks of hope that both men and women can be liberated from a set of traditional social norms. Re-negotiating Gender: Household Division of Labor When She Earns More than He Does is essential reading in the fields of family and gender studies, sociology, psychology, and East Asian studies.
