all the green areas in Germany have lower GDP than the yellow parts same with the green part in the Rheinland. And Berlin has a much higher GDP than the surrounding areas and is yellow. I don’t think it’s solely an effect of socialism.
Why would a lower GDP be indicative of more people working? wouldnt it be the other way round.
Also the social infrastructure in many areas of western Germany is terrible. Many friends of me said that it was simply impossible to get a daycare for the children, or daycare was only until 1 pm and no lunch so the mother had to be at home cooking and could only work part time.
Maybe lower GDP could also cause that the salaries are lower and thus families can’t afford to live on one salary.
That could be a reason. One the other hand the cost of living is also higher, albeit not as proportionate and the generational wealth is much lower in the east. Usually a high or low GDP are also correlated with unemployment.
For the GDP i'd say it is difficult to gauge, whether it is a positive or negative factor on womens employment. For cultural and social infrastructure these effects are well documented.
This is the difference, not the employment rate. So maybe they're more equally unemployed. Maybe men have a higher unemployment rate generally there, bringing them down to meet the women's rate.
True but what is the connection between higher GDP and women not working? Also what green part in Rheinland? Berlin could be explained by higher ratio of immigrants and their different family structures.
They meant Belgium. Sorry, old German habit.
