Mulholland explores the links between class as a resource and enterprise, the connections between the organization of the sexual division of labor and enterprise, the relationship between masculinity and enterprise and the manner in which emotional labor and domesticity also contribute to the construction of business. Based on a regional study of newly created and inherited enterprise across different sectors, interviews were conducted amongst seventy major business families and one hundred family members. |
