On the economics of marriage : a theory of marriage, labor, and divorce

Author:	Shoshana Grossbard-Shechtman
Publisher:	Boulder: Westview Press, 1993.
Edition/Format:	Book : EnglishView all editions and formats
Summary:	Dr. Grossbard-Shechtman develops a theory of marriage in the tradition of Nobel-prize-winning economist Gary Becker. By incorporating the concept of spousal labor into her theory, the author derives many new hypotheses regarding various aspects of marriage, divorce, and cohabitation, thereby improving our understanding of the institution of marriage.
