Women, Work, and Motherhood Ideology
Journal Title: Review Journal of Political Philosophy - Year 2017, Vol 0, Issue 2
Abstract
‘The economic and political spheres are alien spaces women have to enter, The ‘home’ is natural realm where woman already exist.(Chaudhuri, M. 2003,359) Traditionally women’s place has been in the ‘private sphere’ an area of life, supposedly removed for most of the part from the stress and scrutiny of the world of the work and men doing most of the so-called valued , productive and important works. The relationship between women, work and motherhood is complex and dynamic. On one hand, today there are more paid jobs, education and career opportunities than ever before. On the other hand, motherhood is still considered and continues to be the mainstay of women’s lives and institution of family. It is basic to the origin of ideology about women. Socialization in contemporary society is still stereotypical and girls are brought up internalizing the primacy of motherhood in their lives. The view that mother’s role comes naturally still persists. The paper is an attempt to address the questions concerning urban educated mothers and the role of motherhood ideology in relation to their choice of work
