从时间利用模式变化的证据中可以看出社会政策方面的一些一般特征。我们在这里要解决的问题是:是否有可能具体说明公共政策制度对时间使用模式的影响?提出了一些关于自由主义和社会民主主义公共政策制度与这些社会中时间使用之间可能的关系模式的假设。所使用的数据来自埃塞克斯大学社会和经济研究所保存的多国时间使用数据档案。公共政策制度与有偿工作时间之间存在明确的关系(自由市场制度下的人平均工作时间更长),然而,无论是在不同休闲活动中花费的时间,还是在国内劳动分工方面,都没有发现一致的制度效应。结论是,至少就这些分析中使用的时间使用变量而言,家务劳动的性别分工和休闲活动类型所代表的变异性不同于公共政策制度分类中通常使用的变异性。
A number of general features of interest in a social policy context emerge from the evidence for changes in patterns of time use. The question that we address here is: is it possible to specify public policy regime effects on patterns of time use? Some hypotheses are advanced concerning likely patterns of relationship between the liberal and social-democratic public policy regimes and the use of time in these societies. The data used are drawn from a multinational time-use data archive held at the Institute for Social and Economic Research at the University of Essex. A clear relationship is found between public policy regime and paid work time (those in liberal market regimes work longer on average), however, there are no consistent regime effects found either for the amount of time spent in different leisure activities or in respect of the domestic division of labor. The conclusion is that, at least in relation to the time-use variables used in the these analyses, the gender division of domestic labor and type of leisure activity represent different dimensions of variability than those commonly used in the classification of public policy regimes.
