Synopsis

Through in-depth interviews Work, Family, and Leisure: Uncertainty in a Risk Society explores the life plans of advanced law and Mba students for work, family, and leisure. The study is contextualized by four ongoing late-twentieth century social transformations, which include the new individualism, the gender revolution, the rise of dual-career couples, and growing employment uncertainty. It explores how they envision integrating these three life domains, and where they hope to find meaning and satisfaction as well as a sense of community.
