Abstract

The broad links between the family as an institution and the economic and social structure have traditionally constituted important areas of inquiry within the social sciences. Still, as Kanter (1977) noted, the connection between working and loving in the everyday life of families has been obscured by what she called the “myth of separate worlds.” In this view, work and family represent two distinct worlds that operate according to their own laws. In Victorian imagery, the family was a woman’s place — a haven of comfort and peace (Degler, 1980; Lasch, 1977). In contrast, the realm of work seemed naturally to be a man’s world—harsh and competitive.
