Křížková, Alena, Marta Vohlídalová. 2009. „The Labour Market and Work-Life Balance in the Czech Republic in Historical Perspective.“ Pp. 35-76 in Hašková, Hana, Zuzana Uhde (eds.). Women and Social Citizenship in Czech Society: Continuity and Change. Praha: Sociologický ústav AV ČR, v.v.i. 245 s. ISBN 978-80-7330-150-7.
The chapter is focused on the development of the position of women in the labour market and on the development of the conditions for work-life balance in the workplace historically from the 1950s to the present. We argue that the high employment of women does not automatically imply women’s emancipation and fulfilment of their rights as citizens in a society based on a gender contract with the gendered arrangements of work and care as conflicting spheres. This chapter is based on the study of historical statistics, law, and available survey data.
