300595 Digital Lecture Series: Work and Family in Transformation? Policies - Structures - Practices (Vtr) (WiSe 2025/2026)

Contents, comment

We are currently witnessing simultaneous and ongoing dynamics of change in policies, structures and practices of work and family. This lecture series includes presentations on public and workplace policy feedback dynamics. The lectures reflect on the following questions and dynamics: When are public policies and workplace policies that are meant to facilitate a better alignment of work and family being implemented, modified or abandoned? And what are the intended and unintended consequences for social inequalities and social cohesion involved? For the latter we are especially interested in policy feedback dynamics, such as normative policy feedback (consequences for stereotypes against mothers and fathers, ideal worker norm expectations and informal work-family support) as well as backlash dynamics of resistance and conflicts around policies, families and workplaces.
