I am a 3L student at The University of Chicago Law School. I am interested in pages discussing Feminist Economics for a course I am taking at The Law School.

I am currently conducting research to make substantial additions to the "unpaid work" Wikipedia article. Currently, the unpaid work page is relatively short. There is a section on the page titled “Unpaid domestic work” which is where I would like to focus the bulk of my additions. I am very interested in the idea of placing economic value on the work women do within the home because without stay-at-home moms and unpaid work, families would need to pay for childcare and other domestic services. I think it is important to share this information with Wikipedia because it helps both men and women place financial value on the work done within the home.
I plan to add several sections and sub-sections to the unpaid work article as outlined below:
- Unpaid student interns in the United States
- Unpaid domestic work
- Definition
- Types of Unpaid Domestic Work
- Domestic Work
- Care Work
- Cause
- Effects
- Effects of Unpaid Domestic Work on Women
- Effects of Unpaid Domestic Work on Men
- Effects of Unpaid Domestic Work on Children
- Effects of Unpaid Domestic Work on Society
- Effects of Unpaid Domestic Work on the Economy
- History
- Ways to Measure Unpaid Domestic Work
- Time Use Measurement
- Collecting Data on Time Use Measurement
- Ways to Value Unpaid Domestic Work
- Opportunity Cost Method
- Replacement Cost Method
- Input-Output Cost Method
- The Double-Burden: Having a Job and Performing Unpaid Domestic Work
- Definition
- Effect of Double Burden on Women
- See also
- References (editing this section to add more references)
