«La trame conjugale» is the sociological essay by Jean-Claude Kaufmann, published by Pocket in paperback (258 pages, in French).
Sociologist Jean-Claude Kaufmann starts from an everyday object, the care of clothing, to analyze life as a couple and its historical evolution. Ironing, buying a washing machine or the trousseau show how domestic tasks are negotiated and why inequality reappears even in couples seeking equality.
The work was originally published in 1992; the original subtitle is «Analyse du couple par son linge», and this Pocket edition is from 2002.
It will interest readers of sociology and gender studies, as well as those who want to understand the domestic dynamics of the couple.
