gender, work, and child care

crossing borders in the life and work of Sally Lubeck

University of Wisconsin-Madison, USA, mbloch{at}wisc.edu

The focus of this article is on the themes of gender, work, and child care as they have been addressed in much of Sally Lubeck's work, in an attempt to understand her trajectory, and her diverse messages to us. In reading her work for this article, key themes stood out that focus our attention on Sally Lubeck's continuing fight for better public funding for child care/early education in the USA, and for a positive family policy that supports all families, particularly single mothers and their children in the United States. Her research attention was also focused on the wisdom expressed in local cultural systems, by parents and teachers, as well as within societal contexts where care and education for all families and children are prioritized.

Key Words: critical theories in ECE • cross-national child care policy • Lubeck • public policy
