Career and Family

In 'Career and Family,' Claudia Goldin examines the century-long journey of women in balancing career and family life, tracing the evolution of gender equality and the persistent challenges faced by women in achieving both career success and family responsibilities.

The book explores how societal and economic structures have impacted women's choices and outcomes across different generations.

Goldin argues that fundamental changes in work structures and the valuation of caregiving are necessary to achieve true gender equality.
