Abstract

[fre] Les femmes poursuivent leur activité professionnelle après leur mariage, puis après leur maternité, plus fréquemment quand leur belle-mère a travaillé durant l'enfance de leur conjoint que quand cette dernière est restée au foyer. Elles sont d'autant plus actives que mères et belles-mères sont diplômées, mais l'activité passée de la belle-mère a toujours plus d'impact que celle de la mère. Même quand les mères et les belles-mères sont sans diplôme, les femmes sont plus souvent actives si leur belle-mère a travaillé alors que leur mère est restée au foyer que dans la situation inverse. . Si l'on veut expliquer ces corrélations en terme d'héritage culturel, il faut donc en conclure que, pour une femme, le modèle de la belle-mère pèse plus lourdement que celui de la mère sur sa décision de continuer à travailler. En particulier, au moment de la constitution du couple, une femme déjà mobilisée par ses aspirations professionnelles aura plus tendance à s'unir avec un conjoint ouvert au travail féminin; de tels maris ont plus souvent reçu un tel exemple de leur mère. [spa] Actividad femenina o inactividad El signo distintivo de la famila del cônyuge . Georges Menahem . Las mujeres continùan su actividad profesional después de su casamiento luego de la maternidad. La frecuencia es mayor en los casos en que la suegra actividad laboral durante la infancia del cônyuge que cuando esta Son tanto mes activas cuando madrés y suegras poseen diplomas pero la la suegra tiene siempre un impacto mayor que la de la madré. Aun cuando no cuenten con diplomas, las madrés son activas con mayor frecuencia si su aunque su madré haya permanecido en el hogar, que en la situaciôn . Si se quiere explicar estas correlaciones en términos de herencia cultural, se conclusion que el modelo representado por la suegra tiene para la mujer mayor madré, en lo relacionado con la decision de continuar trabajando. En el tuciôn de la pareja, en especial, una mujer ya movilizada por sus tendra una tendencia mayor a unirse con un cônyuge receptivo al trabajo mayoria de los casos, taies maridos recibieron el ejemplo de su propia [eng] Professional activity . or non-activity of women . The role played . by the husband's family . Georges Menahem . When women get married, then later become mothers, they keep working their mother-in-law worked during their husband's childhood than if she Women work more often if their mother and mother-in-law hold diplomas, but professional activity of the mother-in-law always has more influence than that Even when the mother and mother-in-law don't have a diploma, women frequently if their mother-in-law held a job and their mother stayed home, than situation. . To explain these correlations in terms of cultural inheritance, it is undeniable of the mother-in-law bears more weight on a woman's decision to keep on of her own mother. For instance, when a man and a woman decide to woman who already has professional aspirations is more likely to pair off with a approves of women working ; in most cases, such husbands have been given their mother.
