Reproductive capital: theoretical foundations and empirical evidence from the workplace
Contextualizing theory through empirical data allows for a broader understanding of how socio-economic, socio-cultural, norms, and values influence individual and organizational behavior. This article critically examines the concept of "reproductive capital" and its interaction with other forms of capital: aging, biological, cultural, economic, social, and symbolic.
