COELHO, Lina. Joint Income, Gender Inequalities and Well-being: Aspects of Portugal in Crisis. Revista Crítica de Ciências Sociais [online]. 2016, n.111, pp.59-80. ISSN 2182-7435. https://doi.org/10.4000/rccs.6461.
Processes for controlling and managing joint incomes and their implications for allocating resources and well-being within the family are themes in multidisciplinary research that have received a great deal of attention in recent decades, particularly in Anglo-Saxon countries. The literature shows that this is an area of family life in which gender inequalities are particularly evident. This article provides an overview of the subject and the research findings available in the literature, as well as the gaps and methodological limitations. The situation in Portugal is also briefly characterized, based on the results from a recent research project which examined the effects of austerity on multiple aspects of family life, including the material and emotional well-being of men and women.
Palavras-chave : austerity; family life; financial management; Portugal; sexual inequality; well-being.
