Isi artikel

Drawing on the results of a national study and a series of focus groups, this article argues that most women, including welfare recipients, package income, that is, combine resources from men, the market, and the state to support their families. Accepting the concept of income packaging and incorporating it into social welfare policies would reduce the stigma attached to the receipt of welfare and, in the long run, would decrease the dependence of poor women and their families on welfare benefits.
