The second half of the twentieth century has witnessed a spectacular rise in women's participation to the labor market in most of the developed world, together with gradual gender convergence in wages and earnings, and the entry of women in occupations traditionally occupied by men. Women's changing role in the labor market has also generated and was often eased by government intervention and firm policies targeting families and in particular providing women with means to combine careers and motherhood. This talk will document these trends and discuss evidence on interactions between families, the labor market, and family policies.
