Drawing on a rich array of documents, photographs, and interviews with women and men, she analyzes the changing gender division of labor in dairying and illuminates the dynamic processes and debates that shaped industrial workplaces. The book demonstrates the importance of rural womens gainful labor and organized activism to Swedens citizenship-based social policies, which enabled married women to combine childrearing with breadwinning.
