In most, if not all, bodies of knowledge, domestic structures, particularlyunpaid care labour, appear to remain as taken-for-granted. In thisarticle we argue the gender budget from the methodological point ofview. In so doing, we shall explore some implications of including thedomestic as one of the sectors, along with the public and privatesectors; and of including circuits structured by interpersonal relationsof kinship, friendship and mutuality, as well as those of commerce andcitizenship. There are two principles of gender budget: namely 1) theassessment of budget impact on an individual as well as a householdbasis, and 2) the recognition of the economic contribution of unpaid carelabour, which is done primarily by women. We also acknowledge thatmacro-level analysis of gender budget is to be complement withmicro-level analysis of family.
