The project investigates the cultural models of family that act in the socio-economic contexts in the Mediterranean area, aiming to revealing the presence of women within them, both in terms of identity building process and role played. We consider studies and researches aimed at understanding cultural variables, gender relationships and the presence of women in family living spaces. In particular: - Family history and working life of women: interconnections between care responsibilities (marriage, natality) and participation in the labour market. - Stability and fragility of the couple ties: organization of daily life and negotiation of gender roles. - The Family's influence on personal identity: female stories about patterns, opportunities, constraints, representations. - The role of migrant women and their families of origin.

Abstract
The project investigates the cultural models of family that act in the socio-economic contexts in the Mediterranean area, aiming to revealing the presence of women within them, both in terms of identity building process and role played. We consider studies and researches aimed at understanding cultural variables, gender relationships and the presence of women in family living spaces. In particular: - Family history and working life of women: interconnections between care responsibilities (marriage, natality) and participation in the labour market. - Stability and fragility of the couple ties: organization of daily life and negotiation of gender roles. - The Family's influence on personal identity: female stories about patterns, opportunities, constraints, representations. - The role of migrant women and their families of origin.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
