  • Variations of the dual earner model: a comparison of the Czech Republic and Germany

Klenner, Christina, Hašková, Hana. 2010. „Variations of the dual earner model: a comparison of the Czech Republic and Germany“. Pp. 181-218 in Christina Klenner, Simone Leiber (eds). Welfare states and gender equality in Central and Eastern Europe. Brusel: European Trade Union Institute. ISBN 978-2-87452-182-9.

We examine factors that have impact on mothers´ employment and childcare practices in Czech and East German societies. We argue that two different versions of the dual earner model developed in the former Czechoslovakia and East Germany, andthat they affect work-life balance patterns in the two societies even today.
