Can mothers leverage the structural resources of their occupation like autonomy to balance motherhood and work, especially in the absence paid leave?
My latest article in the Journal of Marriage and Family suggests so.
Looking forward to the next Max Weber Lecture @eui-eu.bsky.social
@aaronreeves.bsky.social will present "Born to Rule: The Making and Remaking of the British Elite", co-authored w/ Sam Friedman.
We will discuss how (British) elites are made, how they think, and whether theyβre the elites we want.
Morgen (!) is het dan echt zo ver: de verdediging van mijn proefschrift. Lees meer over mijn onderzoek in dit artikel.

My cousin Sietske's contribution delves into her dance shows for youth. With 'De Discourse Dance' she explores contemporary challenges like AI, social media, drugs, and self-confidence. (www.instagram.com/dediscoursed...)
In my article, I explore how the interplay between genes, families, & schools shapes educational outcomes & inequality. To bring my research to life, I created a dance video. Check it out here π½οΈ: youtu.be/sOdVxiBYRWk
Exploring society through π¬science andπ dance
My cousin & I discovered a shared passion for addressing societal issues through dance, now featured in The Teachers' Society! Is our shared interest 'nature' or 'nurture'? π€
