Abstract

Die traditionelle Rollenverteilung im Haushalt sieht den Mann als Erbringer des Geldeinkommens, während die Frau unbezahlte Familienarbeit in der Ehe verrichtet und dafür im Austausch einen Teil vom Geldeinkommen des Mannes erhält. Dieses Modell ist in Deutschland auf dem Rückzug. Frauen erwerben zunehmend ein eigenes Einkommen und sichern in wachsender Zahl ihre Lebensgrundlage selbst. Doch es gibt keine eindeutige Entwicklungslinie vom traditionellen männlichen Familienernährermodell (mit nichterwerbstätiger Frau) zum modernisierten männlichen Ernährermodell (mit in Teilzeit beschäftigter Frau) hin zu einem partnerschaftlich-egalitären Modell (mit zwei in ähnlichem Umfang erwerbstätigen Partnern). Dies zeigt das Aufkommen einer Gruppe von Haushalten, in denen die Frau die Hauptbezieherin von Erwerbseinkommen ist. Frauen fungieren in diesen Familien als die Haupteinkommensbezieherin und ernähren somit sich selbst und weitere Familienangehörige. Diese familiäre Situation rückt hier ins Blickfeld. Die vorliegende Studie fragt nach der Verbreitung solcher Haushalte in Deutschland sowie nach den Ursachen entsprechender Konstellationen. Bezüglich der relevanten Einflussfaktoren fragen wir: Welche Bedeutung haben für dies Konstellation erstens veränderte Familien- und Lebensformen, zweitens zunehmende Erwerbsintegration von Frauen, teilweise auch in höheren beruflichen Positionen sowie drittens Umbrüche in der Erwerbssphäre, die zu einer neuen Unsicherheit der Arbeit (auch) für Männer führen? Die Untersuchung analysiert daher Erwerbskonstellationen und Einkommenserwirtschaftung auf der Haushaltsebene.
