가사노동을 통한 주부의 사회적 기여에 관한 논의 = The Housewives Social Contribution Through Their Household Labor

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

We study on the housewives` social contribution through their household labor. By the method of literature review, we discuss about the housewives` social roles, their negative problems and the private and public efforts to solve the problems, and ultimate direction to the solutions. We find their four roles-invisible labors in this capitalist society, consumers without any sovereignty, substitutes for incomplete social welfare system and agents to develop and sustain the social network. A few solutions which they have found out or the Korean society has devised are not enough. The utmost and ultimate solutions should include the housewives` autonomy, subjectivity and community.
