AbstractBrief abstract written by HRAF anthropologists who have done the subject indexing for the document
This essay is a study of changing female work roles as rural village women move into the city of Athens. Sutton concludes that the economic structures found in the city, particularly those which place much work in a non-familial setting, reverse major aspect of the village pattern. In this reversal, the manner in which migrant women advance the familial economy changes significantly (p. 33).
