Worldwide research has shown that women tend to devote a disproportionate amount of time to domestic labour that can be a barrier to gender equality and women's empowerment. The aim of this study is to investigate the extent to which women's role in unpaid domestic labour has an effect on their well-being and whether this presents a barrier to their empowerment or their ability ‘to do and be’ what they value. The study is based on ethnographic research in six rural villages located at the very north-eastern part of Croatia in Slavonia. This article draws on rural women's (and men's) accounts of their meanings and experiences in unpaid domestic labour. Pertaining to this labour, it also reviews their contribution as well as their lack of access to well-being in the family and wider community. Findings show that women's engagement in domestic labour has both positive and negative effects on their well-being, as well as that of their families and the wider community.

This article presents a defence of the demand for a guaranteed basic income against recent Left critiques. Drawing on a series of lessons from the 1970s-era demand for Wages for Housework, I argue in favour of a demand for a liveable and universal basic income as a coalitional, antiproductivist, antifamilial reform that can help to alleviate some of the ways that the current wage-and-family system miscounts our economic contributions and fails as a sys-tem of income distribution.

Artykuł stanowi obronę bezwarunkowego dochodu podstawowego przed ostatnią krytyką ze strony lewicy. Wyciągając wnioski z wysuwanego w latach siedemdziesiątych dwudziestego wieku żądania płac za pracę domową, opowiadam się za powszechnym, godnym dochodem podstawowym. Przedstawiam go jako koalicyjną, antyproduktywistyczną, antyrodzinną reformę, która odpowiada na problemy stworzone przez obecny system pracy najemnej i rodziny: nieadekwatne szacowanie naszego wkładu w gospodarkę oraz niesprawiedliwy podział dochodu.
