• Parenthood, policy and work-family time in Australia 1992—2006 (2010, background): “Also, in the Nordic countries gender equity in both paid and unpaid work is an explicit policy goal (Leira, 2002).”
• Poland: Fertility decline as a response to profound societal and labour market changes? (2008, background): “The change in the family situation in the 1990s can be treated as a shift from ‘defamilisation’ towards ‘familisation’ of child-related duties (Leira 2002; Kotowska 2004) or to the ‘imposed home care’ model of family policy (Kontula and Miettinen 2005).”
• Getting the offer: Sex discrimination in hiring (2006, unknown): “A central goal of Scandinavian family policies has been to remove the impact on labor market outcomes of having children (Leira 2002, chap.”
• WELFARE STATE POLICIES AND THE DEVELOPMENT OF CARE ARRANGEMENTS (2005, background): “For example Norway, whose welfare state Esping-Andersen classified as social-democratic, for a long time was characterised by relatively low levels of women’s employment (Ellingsaeter 1999; Leira 1992, 2002).”
• Preferences or institutions? Work—family life opportunities in seven European countries (2007, result): “The impact of welfare state structures has been discussed in a number of previous studies (e.g. Lewis, 1992; 1993; Sainsbury, 1994; O’Connor et al., 1999; Leira, 2002; Gornick and Myers, 2003; Anttonen, 2005; Pfau-Effinger, 2005).”
• Parental leave regulations and the persistence of the male breadwinner model: Using fuzzy-set ideal type analysis to assess gender equality in an enlarged Europe (2012, background): “…by reducing families’ (women’s) care load, parental leave legislation creates immediate incentives/disincentives for fathers to participate in childcare, thus influencing more directly the ways in which men and women come to share not only paid work, but also childcare (Leira, 2002; Leitner, 2003).”
