Important services are provided in private households, yet this kind of employment is relatively unrecognized and receives less legal protection than work in other sectors. The essays in this volume investigate the regulation of "home as a workplace" from juridical, socio-historical, and legal policy perspectives, from the 1654 Gesindeordnungen to regulate the work of farmhands to today's ILO Domestic Workers Convention 189.
