En savoir plus sur le livre
This book explores the compatibility of strategies in child- and eldercare policies and evaluates their effectiveness in meeting rising care service demands. Focusing on childcare and eldercare, it assesses the strategies of policy actors from the household perspective, linking these areas of policymaking as both aim to balance work and caregiving. The examination includes how the tension between work and caregiving impacts well-being and how families navigate this challenge, particularly regarding gendered strategies. The study compares the Czech Republic and Norway, acknowledging their differing starting points. Norway boasts a long-established, well-developed, and crisis-resistant care policy framework, while the Czech Republic is gradually prioritizing care policies amid increasing needs. This comprehensive analysis enhances understanding of how childcare and eldercare strategies and policies evolve in various contexts, the potential for effective cooperation among actors, and the exploration of new, effective solutions.
