Maříková, Hana. 2020. „Czech Republic“. s. 247-269. In Deutsch, F., Gaunt, R.. Creating Equality at Home: How 25 couples around the world share housework and childcare. Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 2020. 200 s. ISBN 978-1-108-49788-6.

The chapter deals with the path to a more equal involvement of both parents in care, housework and paid work within two heterosexual couples of different age in the Czech society, where gender-unequal division of duties in the sphere of family and private life prevails. The chapter identifies as one of the main sources of more egalitarian attitudes of married couples especially to care of their child/ren the men´s experiences from their families of origin. The chapter captures not only negotiations on the division of care and work, but also negotiations on having another child.
