Abstract

This volume...treats in an interdisciplinary manner a number of the gender issues...regarding womens roles in the spheres of production and reproduction....A theme is the need to improve modes of conceptualising measuring evaluating and documenting aspects of womens productive and reproductive roles and the ways in which these may interact and affect each other. Thus a concern of a number of the essays in this collection is to bring consideration of systems of familial roles and relationships more effectively into the framework used in collecting and analysing data needed for policy formulation and subsequent project design....Several of the essays included in this collection analyse comparative information from a number of countries [in Sub-Saharan Africa]. Others are case-studies from Botswana Ghana Swaziland and Zimbabwe. (EXCERPT)
