What factors have displaced men from traditional roles? What factors have over-burdened women in their old and new roles? How are men and women coping with these changes around the world?
What will be an ideal response?
Men's traditional roles in agriculture and heavy industry have been lost to economic change. In many cases, they have not been well equipped to take on new roles in a service economy and in caregiving. At the same time, women may find they are called on to do primary care for children and elders even as they expand their work roles and take on demanding professions. Around the world, families are starting to rethink and renegotiate the division of tasks in the household.
