Households and the world-economy / edited by Joan Smith , Immanuel Wallerstein and Hans-Dieter Evers v.3 - London Sage 1984 - vol.3(296p.)

The basic building blocks of economies-households-are usually neglected in most large-scale economic analyses. In this comprehensive volume, leading American and Euro pean scholars present the first world systems analysis of the household, bringing to light the crucial link between the world economy, the state, and indi vidual household behavior. This inter disciplinary collection of essays draws together literature from fields as diverse as political economics and family stud ies, considering both historical and cross-cultural factors in structural dynamics of the world labor force and functions of the world-economy.
