Description
Examines the position of women in the U.S. economy and analyses patterns of poverty in relation to different types of families. Discusses why women fare worse than men in employment and earnings and highlights the ineffectiveness of U.S. policies and welfare reform programmes in eliminating poverty. Puts forward alternative welfare reform proposals and suggests measures aimed at establishing women's economic equality.
