Summary:
"Love, Money, and Parenting investigates how economic forces and growing inequality shape how parents raise their children. From medieval times to the present, and from the United States, the United Kingdom, Germany, Italy, Spain, and Sweden to China and Japan, Matthias Doepke and
Fabrizio
Zilibotti
look at how economic incentives and constraints--such as money, knowledge, and time--influence parenting practices and what is considered good parenting in different countries. Through personal anecdotes and original research, Doepke and
Zilibotti
show that in countries with increasing economic inequality, such as the United States, parents push harder to ensure their children have a path to security and success."--From publisher.
