private/public spheres  

Definición

  • The private/public sphere dichotomy generally refers to domains within which one exercises influence and dominance, if not authority. In the field of gender studies, this schema commonly refers to the home as the private sphere, in which women retain the bulk of decision-making prerogative for the family, and the world of work and politics beyond the home as the public sphere, in which men tend to exert greater if not undisputed influence.
