[Research on the impact of socialization on welfare users and families from the perspective of household finances and gender]
Socialization of life is the substitution of social functions for private and individual functions within the home.Along with the declining birthrate, aging population, women's participation in society, and the review of gender roles in families and communities, childcare and nursing care services have become indispensable means of living, but these are also part of the socialization of life.The providers of livelihood means through the socialization of life are broadly divided into three categories: the private sector, the public sector, and the non-profit sector.In Japan, the socialization of life by the private for-profit sector is progressing on a large scale, and we "purchase" many of the welfare and life support services necessary for our lives.In such a society, I am researching how the gender wage gap and the poverty of women, which are sources of income, have a significant impact on household budgets and service availability.
