Between family and the labour market. Perception of gender roles in Luxembourg

    Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

    Abstract

    The paper deals with the issue of attitudes toward gender roles in the Grand Duchy of Luxem- bourg. Firstly, it examines to what extent the attitudes of Luxembourgish inhabitants reflect the remaining corporatist institutional setting of the country. Secondly, the paper explores whether the perception of gender roles varies among different age categories of Luxembourgish men and women and whether the young generation can be seen as a vehicle of attitudinal change in the country. The analyses are based on the data from the European Value Study survey from 1999.
