{"product_id":"carefair-1","title":"Carefair","description":"\u003cp\u003eWe often think of care as personal or intimate, and citzenship aspolitical and public. In \u003cem\u003eCarefair\u003c\/em\u003e, Paul Kershaw urges us toresist this private\/public distinction, and makes a convincing case fortreating caregiving as a matter of citizenship that obliges andempowers everyone in society.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eCarefair\u003c\/em\u003e has its roots in the rise of \"duty\"discourses - in neoliberalism, communitarianism, the thrid way, socialconservatism, and feminism - that advocate renewed appreciation forobligations in civil society. The convergence of these discourses,Kershaw argues, signals the possibility for political compromise infavour of policies that will deter men from free-riding on female care.The author invites readers to rethink the role of care duties andentitlements in their daily lives, in public policy, and in debatesabout social inclusion. He provides a detailed blueprint for morepublic investment in work-family balance, and recommends amendments toCanadian parental leave, child care, and employment standards thatwould collectively form a caregiving framework analogous toworkfare.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"University of British Columbia Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Product","offer_id":54253026804056,"sku":"9780774811606","price":99.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9780774811606__6774d0c156594.jpg?v=1741134944","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/carefair-1","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
