Originally published in 1978 Working Couples deals with husbands
and wives who both hold paid jobs. The editors, the late Robert N.
and Rhona Rapoport, had established themselves as well-respected
authorities on dual-career families, and in this study they call
upon other specialists in the field to apply their research
experience to the consideration of the particular problems
confronting working couples at the time. They discuss how some of
these issues had arisen and analyse how they were being dealt with
in a number of contexts. Working couples at the time were subject
to constraints of various kinds in meeting the challenges they
faced, and there were many who rejected the lifestyle on these
grounds; but there were many others for whom it worked. Numerous
families were attempting to operate the pattern in new ways. Both
may have separate jobs, and her income may not only be separate
from his, but in some cases larger and more reliable. Such a
situation creates its own problems, which need to be resolved. The
authors look at and clarify some of the generic issues and discover
which resolutions have been satisfactory, as well as the various
devices created for helping dual-worker families to function.
