Originally published in 1978, Working Couples delves into the lives of husbands and wives who both hold paid jobs. The editors, the late Robert N. and Rhona Rapoport, had established themselves as renowned authorities on dual-career families, and in this study, they bring together a team of specialists to apply their research expertise to address the unique challenges faced by working couples at that time. The authors explore how these challenges emerged and analyze the various ways in which they were addressed in different contexts.
Working couples encountered various constraints in navigating their challenges, leading some to reject the lifestyle altogether. However, there were also many others who found success in adapting to this arrangement. Numerous families were exploring innovative ways to operate within the dual-worker model. Both spouses may have separate jobs, with their income potentially being distinct from each other and, in some cases, larger and more reliable. This unique situation presents its own set of problems, which require careful resolution.
The authors delve into and clarify some of the generic issues that arise in dual-worker families. They examine the various resolutions that have been successful and identify the various devices and strategies created to support these families in functioning effectively.
Through their comprehensive analysis, Working Couples provides valuable insights into the experiences of working couples and offers practical solutions for overcoming the challenges they face. It serves as a valuable resource for individuals, couples, and professionals seeking to navigate the complexities of dual-career households.
