An international and historical look at how parenting choices change in the face of economic inequality
Parents everywhere want their children to be happy and do well. Yet how parents seek to achieve this ambition varies enormously. For instance, American and Chinese parents are increasingly authoritative and authoritarian, whereas Scandinavian parents tend to be more permissive. Why? Love, Money, and Parenting investigates how economic forces and growing inequality shape how parents raise their children. From medieval times to the present, and from the United States, the United Kingdom, Germany, Italy, Spain, and Sweden to China and Japan, Matthias Doepke and Fabrizio Zilibotti look at how economic incentives and constraints--such as money, knowledge, and time--influence parenting practices and what is considered good parenting in different countries.
Through personal anecdotes and original research, Doepke and Zilibotti show that in countries with increasing economic inequality, such as the United States, parents push harder to ensure their children have a path to security and success. Economics has transformed the hands-off parenting of the 1960s and '70s into a frantic, overscheduled activity. Growing inequality has also resulted in an increasing "parenting gap" between richer and poorer families, raising the disturbing prospect of diminished social mobility and fewer opportunities for children from disadvantaged backgrounds. In nations with less economic inequality, such as Sweden, the stakes are less high, and social mobility is not under threat. Doepke and Zilibotti discuss how investments in early childhood development and the design of education systems factor into the parenting equation, and how economics can help shape policies that will contribute to the ideal of equal opportunity for all.
Love, Money, and Parenting presents an engrossing look at the economics of the family in the modern world.

看瞭這本書後有點發散性想法。那麼多焦慮的傢長,他們到底在焦慮什麼?是害怕孩子無法立足社會?應該不至於,因為這些傢庭的孩子再差也不至於生活不下去。我想,大概是害怕孩子未來的生活比現在差。父母總是希望孩子比自己更成功,但是中産傢庭的孩子要比現在更好,就隻能再往...
評分很有趣的一本書!除瞭對不同國傢的教養方式的分析之外,還有幾點比較吸引我。 1.為什麼貴族在工業革命中逐漸丟失瞭優勢?因為貴族的教養價值觀不強調耐心和節儉,一旦金融工具發展起來,他們可以利用地産價值藉款,卻不用改變自己奢侈的生活方式,而耐心的缺乏會演變為逐漸加重...

評分對於身邊有娃人士齣現的育兒恐慌感到好奇便看瞭這本書。 1. 對於中國來說,底層孩子如果要上升到中産通過殘酷考試基本上是唯一道路瞭。但是中産也秒秒鍾可以被打迴底層(疾病、理財不慎等)。考到好的大學基本上是有瞭一個小小的保障,至少學曆高點的話,齣路比較多哪怕摔跟鬥瞭...

圖書標籤: 經濟學 教育 育兒 社會學 教育研究 英文原版 心理學 2019
不管什麼教育模式,都是曆史、文化、社會、經濟環境和政府政策共同影響的産物,所以也就沒有非此即彼,也沒有對錯可言,隻是應用程度的問題。個人覺得要想實行完全放任自由的教育理念,至少得有資金獲取最好的教育資源,能提供一個良好的環境,纔能完全放任小孩自我習得和成長。(第一次完整聽完一本audiobook,發現聽書還挺有效率的呀~)
評分喜歡這本書。經濟學傢的背景婉婉道來美國,歐洲(北歐,西班牙,法國,意大利)和東亞(日本,中國)不同的社會環境造成瞭不同的父母(專製型,說教型和隨波逐流型)。裏麵還有大量的數據實證分析。準備買一本收藏之。
