Dear colleagues,

I have a research question - and figured you are all the best group to  
ask this.  I'm working on a book on the social history of social life  
in suburbia, post 1945.  I'm wondering if there is any literature out  
there - that you might be familiar with - that deals with the trend of  
"stay-at-home moms" since the 1980s or so.  I'm particularly  
interested in the class dynamics of this.  I'm terming it  
"neo-domesticity" but I've just sort of made this up - perhaps it's  
talked about by feminist scholars in different terms.

Any suggestions would be most appreciated.

best,
Becky
