Gender, Time Use, and Change: The Impact of the Cut Flower Industry in Ecuador
利用厄瓜多尔调查数据，比较女性劳动需求高和低的地区，发现女性就业机会不改变女性总劳动时间，但增加男性无偿劳动时间，反映女性家庭议价能力提升。
This article uses survey data from Ecuador to examine the effects of women's employment on the allocation of paid and unpaid labor within the household. I compare a region with high demand for female labor with a similar region in which demand for female labor is low. The comparison suggests that market labor opportunities for women have no effect on women's total time in labor but increase men's time in unpaid labor. The increase in men's time in unpaid work reflects women's increased bargaining power in the home.
