This book is a collection of original essays on the meaning of providing care. The main goal of this book is to re-conceive the notion of care work, beginning with replacing the phrase 'caregiver' with the phrase 'care worker'.
Care Work is a collection of original essays on the complexities of providing care. These essays emphasize how social policies intersect with gender, race, and class to alternately compel women to perform care work and to constrain their ability to do so. Leading international scholars from a range of disciplines provide a groundbreaking analysis of the work of caring in the context of the family, the market, and the welfare state.
