- Description
- Moving from early twentieth-century struggles over minimum wages for both the woman worker and male breadwinner and post-World War II attempts at equal pay through job evaluation and legislation onto battles for comparable worth and the living wage, the authors unmask wage setting as a central vehicle for institutionalizing gender and race inequality in the United States.
