This comparative study of European time transfers reveals the full
extent of transfers in the form of unpaid work and highlights the
existence of important gender differences in household time
production. A large quantity of goods and services are produced by
household members for their own consumption, without involving
market transactions. Despite the economic and social importance of
unpaid work, these productive activities are largely invisible to
traditional national economic accounts. As a consequence, standard
measures of intergenerational transfers typically ignore household
production, and thus underestimate the overall value of goods and
services produced over the life cycle; in particular, the economic
contribution of females. The book uses a life course approach to
offer policy-relevant insights into the effect of demographic and
social change on intergenerational ties and gender inequality in
household production.
