Mothers, Mothering, and Covid-19

Dispatches from the Pandemic

Herausgeber: Green, Fiona J; O'Reilly, Andrea

Beschreibung

There has been little research on the specific impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on mothers and motherwork. This collection is the first to explore the impact of the pandemic on mothers' care and wage labour in the context of employment, schooling, communities, families, and the relationships of parents and children.
