Middle-Class Couples

A Study of Segregation, Domination and Inequality in Marriage

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

When this book was originally published in 1980, sociologists had long held the view that the middle-class marriage in contemporary Britain was characterised by role desegregation and marital equality. Middle-Class Couples reported on research which provided a critical re-analysis of this orthodoxy.
