Objectives:

Contents:
History of the private household, private household as an economic unit (household life cycle, household (start-up) costs, child costs - state transfer payments, household poverty, consumer behaviour with regard to sustainable consumption), private household and socio-economic aspects (care work, gender care gap), household-related and social interdependencies (institutional support services), requirements for household-related educational and everyday skills.
