研究摘要:
The teaching profession is one of the largest women-dominated employment niches in many national contexts, yet the gender, work and family negotiations within this profession have been understudied. The case study of South Korean teachers, one of the most highly qualified teaching workforces in the world, illuminates how particular professions create specific challenges as well as supports for work and family that can counter national patterns of women’s low labor force participation. This study moves beyond the dominant theoretical debates regarding “work-family conflict” and “work-life balance” to develop the framework of “work-family alignment.” This framework incorporates cultural, ideological and functional dimensions and builds on scholarly and public debates relevant to South Korea and other Asian countries. Finally, it offers recommendations for how to support women’s efforts to negotiate work and family, and what lessons can be drawn for other professional and national settings.
