Summary

Introduction

Ukraine has chosen the European democratic path of social development today, which is based on the mandatory compliance of gender parity in all spheres of social life. The changeless opinion on gratuitousness of economic work done in their own family has deeply embedded in Ukrainian traditional public consciousness, because only 14 percent of women consider it necessary to provide reproductive work economic status of employment (Sociological survey conducted in the city of Cherkasy on the topic “The professional activities of women” (712.06.2016)). As a result of the transformation of gender consciousness Ukrainian society, which took place during the transition from pre-industrialtraditional to industrial-capitalist and later to a postindustrial and continues to this day, the understanding of female role and place in the public and private spheres of life has not undergone fundamental changes only certain correction regarding her perception of itself as a member of the society in socially useful work. In the worldview of most Ukrainian women in past and present the productive work is defined as the way of self-realization and improvement of the welfare of their family, which they agree to combine with unproductive work, provided that this does not prevent their motherhood
