Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - A brilliant approach to the economics of caregiving and feminized work, from the MacArthur Awardwinning economist'Important and illuminating . . . an outstandingly provocative book about the economics of care and reciprocity.' Emma Rothschild, The New York Times Book ReviewLost in perpetually controversial conversations about 'family values' is an examination of the economic forces that are exploding family life and limiting the caregiving that families can provide. As leading feminist economist Nancy Folbre notes, every society must confront the problem of balancing self-interested pursuits with care for othersincluding children, the elderly, and the infirm.

Intensified economic competition may drive altruism and families out of business. The COVID-19 pandemic, too, has torn apart the tenuous, fragile web that makes care work possible in our society.Nancy Folbre writes in a lively, personal style and develops a distinctive approach to the economics of care. Unlike others who praise family values, Folbre acknowledges the complicated relationship between women and altruism. The Invisible Heart offers powerful feminist approaches to such policy issues as welfare reform, school finance, and progressive taxation, and it confronts the challenges of globalization, outlining strategies for developing an economic system that rewards both individual achievement and care for others.…
