Description:	It is with much excitement that we welcome you to our book, which aims to help reshape international thinking on “gender gaps.” While many studies have looked at the role of society or organizations, we also wished to focus attention on the role of occupations in promoting and reproducing gender gaps. Furthermore, we wanted to look at the interactions between some important concepts—regulation distance, regulation content, norms, and labor segmentation—in shaping those gaps. So we have brought together leading authors from the fields of industrial relations, sociology, politics, psychology, and feminist economics, who have outlined some theoreti- cal considerations, considered the lessons from international compari- sons, and discussed case studies in particular occupations such as apparel outworkers, public-sector professionals such as librarians, film and video workers, and coal miners.
