Studies focusing on interface between work and family life have increased over the past decade. Many of these studies advanced our understanding on the intricate work/family relationships that exist in the United States. This year, 1994, is the United Nation's International Year of the Family. In observance of this special year, this article discusses dominant perspectives on work and family in the United States and suggests the ways to refine our views by reviewing comparative research and studies conducted in other countries on work and family life. I offer recommendations for further international and comparative research and encourage family scholars to expand their views on work and family by considering more global perspectives.
