An interview with Agnese Vitali (University of Southampton) on female breadwinners.
Questions:
1. Looking at the income of European families, who is typically the “breadwinner” these days?
2. Are there typical scenarios of how women become the main earner?
3. Are there European countries where the numbers of female breadwinners are especially high, and what are the reasons for this?
4. What has changed the most about the income situation of families over the last decade, and what will the development be like in the next ten years?
