How bright is the economic future for women after divorce, separation or death of a spouse? Morgan follows hundreds of women over a 15-year span to determine the long-term economic similarities and differences among these women. By comparing the years before and after marriage, she considers the occurrence, order and timing of marital transitions, workforce participation and financial well-being. In addition, she discusses policy issues and underlying causes in the gender/family role system.
