This comprehensive and interdisciplinary volume delves into the profound impact of motherhood on the participation of women in media and creative industries across the globe. Diverse contributions engage critically with the intricate intersections and overlaps between the social categories of worker and mother, as well as the dynamic realm of media production and maternal caregiving. The book unravels conflicting notions and expectations surrounding mothers within the context of the dynamic working world of radio, film, television, and creative media industries. It explores commonalities across various countries, from Hollywood to Bollywood, while also examining the nuanced differences between class, religion, maternal status, and cultural frameworks that shape the experiences of working mothers in different nation-states. Furthermore, the book offers insightful possibilities for forward-thinking solutions that can enhance the well-being of women workers who are also mothers.
A timely and valuable addition to ongoing international discussions on equality, mothers, and motherhood in audiovisual industries, this book appeals to scholars, students, and practitioners in the fields of media, communication, cultural studies, gender studies, work inequalities, and motherhood studies. It also holds significance for activists, funders, policymakers, and practitioners who are committed to promoting inclusive and equitable environments for women in media and creative industries.
