Casais dual career e suas inclinações frente a relação trabalho e família: uma visão sobre o cenário brasileiro

Abstract

This study aims to explore the database of the National Household Sample Survey (PNAD) produced by the IBGE (Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics) in order to investigate how couples from a dual-career perspective approach the demands of home and work. The study uses a quantitative-descriptive analysis of secondary data to update the model proposed by Berlato (2015), in which typologies were delineated from a sample of dual-career couples who were former students of a state university in São Paulo. From a sample of 890 individuals derived from the PNAD, it was possible to observe the predominance of traditional characteristics among Brazilian couples. Despite the suggestion of social change that comes with the dual-career phenomenon, there are still some features that accentuate gender disparities in the country.

A trajetória do conceito remonta a Rapoport e Rapoport (1969), que salientam a imbricação das carreiras escolhidas e a vida em família, independentemente da presença de filhos.…”

Dual-career expatriate partners' motives for supporting international assignments: evidence from a patriarchal society

“…This study aimed to contribute to filling the identified research gap and extending knowledge in expatriate research by investigating the lived experiences of dual-career female partners from an emerging global south patriarchal society (Brazil) as it relates to motives for supporting a partner’s IA to a developed country (United States of America). Brazil is a suitable national socioeconomic-political and cultural context for this investigation for several reasons, including increased presence of women in the labor force in recent decades, growing number of dual-earner and DCCs, survival of patriarchal structures and ideologies in society, growing number of Brazilian professionals being recruited or seeking expatriation in recent years (Berlato et al. , 2019; Hirata, 2018; IBGE, 2021; Nunes, 2022).…”

The United States of America is also a suitable host country for this investigation for various reasons, including its recognition as one of the most attractive destinations for skilled workers as a result of its strong job market, plentiful educational opportunities, superior career prospects, agreeable work culture, job satisfaction, international diversity and easiness of integration of foreign workers (Civljak, 2019;JGM 12,2 Expat-Insider, 2023;Lambert et al, 2019).…”
