The subsequent decline in atmospheric ...

The geography of female wartime work was primarily driven by industrial mobilization, not drafted men's withdrawal from local labor markets. After the war, returning veterans and sharp cutbacks in war-related industries displaced many new female entrants, despite interest in continued work. As a result, areas most expo...
