dc.description.abstract <p>Home economics was once a vibrant women's movement in America, on a level with the women's suffrage or temperance movements. A tendency exists for modern women to disregard the study of home economics as useless, old-fashioned, or anti feminist. The purpose of this study is to examine commonly-held perceptions of the decline of home economics as a social and scholarly phenomenon exploring the potential to re-elevate home economics by demonstrating its continued relevance in modern America.</p>
