The Post-Fordist Sexual Contract: Working and Living in Contingency

Adkins, Lisa; Dever, Maryanne

Contingency creates a sexual contract in which attachments to work, mothering, entrepreneurship and investor subjectivity are the new regulatory ideals for women over a range of working arrangements, and across classed and raced dimensions.
