Description
Jennifer Nedelsky calls for deliberation on her proposal to completely rebalance the challenges of employment, life, family and care. Her idea; that everybody (and she does mean everybody) engage in both paid part-time work and unpaid part-time care. In this talk she argues that the current arrangements and approaches are behind many of the social ills we experience today and she explains how her new norms of care might function.
Highlights of Restructuring work and care. Presented by the Sydney School for Critical Social Thought and the Institute for Social Justice, Australian Catholic University, North Sydney. May 2015.
