This innovative and thought-provoking Research Handbook explores
the theoretical debate surrounding work-life balance, and provides
a reflection on the opportunity to adopt multilevel research
approaches and perspectives, along gender and temporal axes. The
Research Handbook is an international overview of current research
on work-life balance, considered in macro, meso and micro
perspectives. Â Offering both theoretical reflections and
empirical research examples illustrating the multiple strategies
through which the different articulations that characterize the
work-life intersection can be analysed, this Research Handbook
includes analyses of gendered labour, generational assets and
technological changes. Contributors provide translation and
actualization of specific research practices and methodological
choices, focused on different national contexts. The empirical
analysis ranges from comparative research based on quantitative
methods, to qualitative approaches centered on longitudinal,
discursive and narrative perspectives, and mixed-method studies.
Further contributions adopt innovative research methods based on
the use of digital and visual technologies. Â This Research
Handbook will be an inspiring read for both undergraduate and
postgraduate sociology and social policy students. The book is also
addressed to researchers, consultants and policy makers interested
in work-life balance issues.
