P/S/125. Dissertation. Interrelation between domestic and public spheres of women’s life

The dissertation investigates the position of women in the UK labour market addressing the issues of the ‘the glass ceiling’ and critically analysing equal opportunity policies. Literature on women’s role identity, civil rights and work-related discrimination against women is reviewed. The conflict between the sexual division of labour in the household and role responsibilities in women is studied on the basis of secondary research methods. Conclusions are made about the interrelationship between the domestic sphere and the public sphere of women’s life.
