ABSTRACT

This paper aims to examine the existing studies of dual poverty of time and income from the perspective of care. In general, dual poverty studies concern issues such as multiple inequalities, the double burden imposed on women, the improvement of women’s jobs that occupy a considerable portion of care work, and the expansion of care-support for female spouses. In this regard, dual poverty studies seem to have some positive insights not only to the time & inequality research but also to that of care. However, in order the existing dual poverty studies to be further care-sensitive, this paper suggests that they need to take care into consideration more systematically in the analytical process of dual poverty as well as their policy implications. Also, this paper proposes that the existing dual poverty studies should be able to criticize the current way how care is merely treated as a residual issue. To conclude, while proposing the care-time/care-burden ratio by the type of household as an idea of analysis, it argues for the extension of ‘caring-with’ and socialization of care as the effective solutions for time and/or dual poverty.
