摘要: 文章从家庭照料与女性劳动参与的矛盾出发,在新古典家庭分工理论的基础上引入生命历程视角,考察与父母同住的居住方式对我国城镇已婚女性劳动参与的影响,以及对生命历程不同阶段的城镇女性影响的异质性及其产生机制。研究发现,与父母同住对城镇已婚女性在不同年龄段的劳动参与产生不同影响:对年轻已婚女性来说,与父母同住会对其劳动参与起到显著促进作用,其主要原因在于同住父母分担了儿童看护的责任;但随着女性年龄增长,与父母同住对其劳动参与的影响将变为消极作用,主要原因在于女性养老照料负担的增加。因此,在社会照料资源缺失和传统性别观念规范下,与老年父母同住作为一种家庭策略,对女性劳动参与不仅有显著的影响,而且体现出生命阶段的差异性。

Abstract: This article studies the impact of co-residence with parents on the labor participation of urban married women in China and the different mechanisms of the impact during their whole life course. The empirical models are based on the combination of neoclassical theory of labor division within family and the theory of life course, focusing on the contradictions between womens household caring and labor participation. We find that co-residence with parents may yield different effects on women in different life course stages: positive effects on younger women by reducing their responsibility of child care and negative ones on older women by increasing their burden of elderly care. The results pass the robust test and instrumental variables are introduced in models to solve the endogeneity issue.
