This volume contains articles on result of quantitative analyses using micro data on Japanese family. Currently the family, household, and kinship are regarded as hot-issues in ageing and low-fertility society like Japan, but family-related policies are often implemented without firm empirical ground. With an intention to offer law/policy implication based on positive scientific evidences with national-representative data, the authors discuss urgent social problems related to contemporary families: parent-child relationships under stem family tradition, unpaid work and sexual division of labor in household, women’s employment and work-family conflict, and inequality in both economic and educational aspects.
This book is based on the research results of the project entitled "Family Change in an Aging Society with Low Fertility: Micro Data Approach" of the Tohoku University Global COE (GCOE) Program, "Gender Equality and Multicultural Conviviality in the Age of Globalization," as a volume in the GCOE Project Research Book Series.
