  • European Union economic policy on social reproduction – Differentiating between Central-Eastern Europe and the West

    Open Access•Elena Zacharenko•ARTICLE•European Journal of Women s Studies•2026•References: 21

    The economic policies of the European Union can deepen the crisis of social reproduction in its member states by impacting the availability of (paid) public or market-based services of childcare, healthcare, long-term care and domestic work and the (unpaid) reproductive labour provided by individuals. Western European Union member states increasingly address the crisis of social reproduction by outsourcing the provision of reproductive labour to …

  • European Union gender equality and work–life balance policies: Managing tensions between the demands of production and reproduction

    Elena Zacharenko•ARTICLE•European Journal of Politics and…•2024•References: 37

    European Union (EU) gender equality policies increasingly acknowledge the existence of tensions between the demands of productive and reproductive labour, with the former defined as waged work and the latter as the (unpaid) activities reproducing the labour force and provisioning for caring needs. As women increasingly enter the labour market, the EU addresses the growing tensions through new gender equality policy initiatives, prompting the ques…

    Open Access•Elena Zacharenko•ARTICLE•JCMS Journal of Common Market…•2024•Cited by: 9•References: 15

    As the population of the European Union (EU) is ageing and its working‐age population shrinking, concerns are rising about how the growing demand for long‐term care (LTC) will be met. Since unpaid care, provided mainly by women, is increasingly scarce, some EU states are becoming dependent on migrant labour for the functioning of their elder care systems. To address the growing deficit of care in the EU, the European Commission put forward a Euro…

  • Constructions of Care in EU Economic, Social, and Gender Equality Policy: Care Providers and Care Recipients versus the Needs of the Economy

    Open Access•Elena Zacharenko, Anna Elomäki•ARTICLE•Social Politics International…•2022•Cited by: 4•References: 11

    The European Union is facing a crisis of care due to demographic shifts, policies aimed at driving up women’s employment while cutting state care expenditures, and marketizing public care provisions. This article combines feminist political economy approaches to reproductive labor as an essential part of the economy with theories of care ethics to explore the European Union’s role in deepening this crisis. It concludes that the European Union fai…
