Arguing that contemporary economic and political change make household level behaviour increasingly significant in the economy, this text investigates interrelations between household and economic change. The conclusions which emerge from these investigations would be relevant to policy makers in both social democratic and neo-liberal countries. The comparative approach taken in the book is amenable to the application of institutional theory, which is used to analyzse work. The results should be of interest to students of economics, political science, sociology and geography, as well as to research and policy specialists from these disciplines.
