  • ‘Family policy change’ and the dependent variable problem

    Open Access•Susan Blum, Ivana Dobrotić•ARTICLE•Journal of European Social Policy•2026

    The ‘dependent variable problem’ remains a persistent challenge in the analysis of welfare state change, for which family policy is a prime case: it combines heterogeneous policy instruments spanning cash benefits, time-related entitlements, and services, each consisting of multiple design elements and underlying logics, making analyses of policy change sensitive to conceptual and measurement choices. Moreover, over the past two decades, as famil…

  • Sorry, we’re closed’

    Ivana Dobrotić, Susan Blum•ARTICLE•European Journal of Politics and…•2023•Cited by: 3•References: 16

    Based on an original data set of early childhood education and care/school closures and reopenings, this article presents a fuzzy-set ideal-type analysis of pandemic childcare-policy responses in 28 European countries and explores the complex empirical variety of these policies across Europe. The analysis shows that European countries cluster into five models, comprising not only the opposite poles of strict closures (public-health approach) or a…

    Open Access•Ivana Dobrotić•ARTICLE•Revija za socijalnu politiku•2023•References: 5

    Changes in the world of labour lead to the need to regulate flexible forms of work, and in the case of parents and carers this is additionally demanded by the Directive on work-life balance for parents and carers (EU/2019/1158) that was transferred by Croatia to its national legislation in 2022. At the same time, research indicates that adjustments of labour legislation in that direction can also, apart from positive ones, have negative effects o…

    This article explores work-care policy development in Western Balkans, focusing on a critical assessment of the potential of the European Union’s policy framework to (re)shape the policies adopted in Western Balkans and boost gender equality in employment and care.

  • The exclusionary side of (women’s) social citizenship in Southeastern Europe

    Ivana Dobrotić, Nikolina Obradovic•ARTICLE•Journal of Southeast European and…•2020

    The article explores the shifts in (women’s) social citizenship in Bosnia-Herzegovina and its effect on the development of childcare policy in the 1945–2019 period. Gendered, selective childcare policy, which was inherent in the socialist notion of social citizenship and aimed to emancipate women as ‘worker-mothers’, deteriorated in the transition period when ethnicity became prioritized over gender and class. Exclusionary citizenship practices i…

  • A social right? Access to leave and its relation to parents’ labour market position

    Ivana Dobrotić, Susan Blum et al.•CHAPTER•Parental Leave and Beyond•2019

    There is limited knowledge about eligibility for leave in general, and about leave rights of parents less securely attached to the labour market in particular. Consequently, social inequalities in access to leave rights remain hidden, which may be particularly pronounced in countries where stable employment is a principal condition to exercise leave rights. In this chapter, we develop an innovative conceptual framework based on the social rights …

  • Why are Paternity Leaves and Father’s Quotas Important? A Comparative Overview of Father’s Leave Schemes in European Countries and Factors and Outcomes of Father’s Leave Use

    Open Access•Ivana Dobrotić, Mirna Vargas et al.•ARTICLE•Revija za sociologiju•2018

    The 2017 proposal of the European Union directive on work-life balance attempts to introduce a four-month, non-transferable, paid parental leave (i.e. quotas) for each employed parent and ten days of paid paternity leave. The proposal is being justified by the need to improve the position of women in the labour market. The adoption of the directive would require Croatia to introduce ten days of paternity leave and extend the existing quotas from …

The present study tackles this problem with a case study on Croatia, a country at the bottom of the European Union's (EU) scale of economic activity rate.

    This paper examines how the individual and country-level factors affect the childcare financing attitudes, particularly the effect of socialization in a particular welfare regime. This area of research is fraught with methodological and conceptual issues, including the over-reliance on Esping-Andersen’s regime typology. Therefore, the authors also investigate whether a more family-policy-nuanced categorization of welfare regimes better accounts f…

  • Family Policies in ‘Hybrid’ Welfare States after the Crisis

    Open Access•Susan Blum, Sonja Blum et al.•ARTICLE•Social Policy and Administration•2014•Cited by: 7•References: 13

    The economic crisis has significantly challenged national welfare states and has often led to retrenchment. The question arises how countries have reacted to the crisis in the area of family policy – not directly connected to rising unemployment and also not as demanding for state spending as for example the pension system. This article analyzes family policy reforms during the crisis in three small European welfare states – A ustria, the C zech …

  • Politike usklađivanja obiteljskih obaveza i plaćenog rada i položaj roditelja na tržištu rada

    Open Access•Ivana Dobrotić•ARTICLE•Revija za socijalnu politiku•2015•Cited by: 4•References: 16

    Novi izazovi s kojima se nose socijalne države doveli su do promijenjenih prioriteta na podrucju socijalnih politika te rastuce promocije modela dvostrukog hranitelja u europskim zemljama. Kako obrasci ponasanja muskaraca i žena na tržistu rada nisu tek odraz ekonomske situacije te kulturnog konteksta i individualnih uvjerenja, vec i postojecih institucionalnih uređenja na podrucju socijalnih politika, upravo politike usklađivanja obiteljskih oba…

  • Who Should Finance Childcare? Multilevel Analysis of 24 Countries

    Open Access•Ivana Dobrotić, T Vuckovic Juros•ARTICLE•Revija za socijalnu politiku•2016•Cited by: 5•References: 13

    This paper examines how the individual and country-level factors affect the childcare financing attitudes, particularly the effect of socialization in a particular welfare regime. This area of research is fraught with methodological and conceptual issues, including the over-reliance on Esping-Andersen’s regime typology. Therefore, the authors also investigate whether a more family-policy-nuanced categorization of welfare regimes better accounts f…

  • Coping Strategies of Economically (Partially) Inactive Households

    Open Access•Dragan Bagić, Ivana Dobrotić et al.•ARTICLE•Comparative Southeast European…•2017

    How do households with inactive or unemployed members face growing risks and uncertainty? The present study tackles this problem with a case study on Croatia, a country at the bottom of the European Union's (EU) scale of economic activity rate. The low level of activity that has characterized Croatia for more than twenty years has been accompanied by a continuously high unemployment rate, which has further increased since 2009. In this context, h…

  • Why are Paternity Leaves and Father’s Quotas Important? A Comparative Overview of Father’s Leave Schemes in European Countries and Factors and Outcomes of Father’s Leave Use

    Open Access•Ivana Dobrotić, Mirna Vargas et al.•ARTICLE•Revija za sociologiju•2018

    The 2017 proposal of the European Union directive on work-life balance attempts to introduce a four-month, non-transferable, paid parental leave (i.e. quotas) for each employed parent and ten days of paid paternity leave. The proposal is being justified by the need to improve the position of women in the labour market. The adoption of the directive would require Croatia to introduce ten days of paternity leave and extend the existing quotas from …

  • Wer hat Zugang zu Elterngeld? Soziale Rechte und Anspruchsbedingungen in vergleichender Perspektive

    Susan Blum, Sonja Blum et al.•ARTICLE•Sozialer Fortschritt•2018•Cited by: 1•References: 15

    Die vergleichende Forschung hat sich bislang mit den Anspruchsbedingungen für Elterngeldleistungen, v. a. aber mit den Rechtsansprüchen von Eltern mit geringerer Arbeitsmarktbindung, wenig auseinandergesetzt. Hierdurch blieben soziale Ungleichheiten beim Zugang zu Elterngeld weitgehend unerforscht. Sie sind insbesondere in denjenigen Ländern von Bedeutung, in denen Elterngeldansprüche an eine bestimmte Form oder Dauer des Beschäftigungsverhältnis…

  • A social right? Access to leave and its relation to parents’ labour market position

    Ivana Dobrotić, Susan Blum et al.•CHAPTER•Parental Leave and Beyond•2019

    There is limited knowledge about eligibility for leave in general, and about leave rights of parents less securely attached to the labour market in particular. Consequently, social inequalities in access to leave rights remain hidden, which may be particularly pronounced in countries where stable employment is a principal condition to exercise leave rights. In this chapter, we develop an innovative conceptual framework based on the social rights …

  • Što vrtić ima s tim? Pristup ranom i predškolskom odgoju i obrazovanju i reprodukcija društvenih nejednakosti u redovnom školovanju

    Open Access•Teo Matković, Ivana Dobrotić et al.•ARTICLE•Revija za sociologiju•2019

    Brojna istraživanja upućuju na važnost ranoga i predškolskog odgoja i obrazovanja (RPOO) za razvoj kognitivnih vještina te njihovu pripremu za školu, pri čemu je učinak RPOO-a, po pravilu, snažniji kod djece iz obitelji nižega socioekonomskog statusa (SES). Empirijske analize o društvenim nejednakostima u pristupu obrazovanju i školskom uspjehu u Hrvatskoj dominantno su se orijentirale na kasnije stadije školovanja, dok područje RPOO-a ostaje nep…

  • Inclusiveness of Parental-Leave Benefits in Twenty-One European Countries

    Open Access•Ivana Dobrotić, Susan Blum et al.•ARTICLE•Social Politics International…•2019•Cited by: 34•References: 13

    This article analyzes eligibility for parental-leave benefits in twenty-one European countries. It distinguishes four ideal-type approaches to how leave-related benefits are granted (in-)dependent of parents’ labor market position: universal parenthood model, selective parenthood model, universal adult-worker model, and selective adult-worker model. An eligibility index is created to measure the inclusiveness of parental-leave benefits, alongside…
