Summary/Abstract: Drawing on professional discourses and the organisation and status of artistic production in publishing for children in socialist Yugoslavia (1945–1991), and by the conceptual bridging of social reproduction theory, this article turns to artistic work for children as productive and social reproductive work and to the social construction of its value in order to reflect on the reasons for the relative feminisation of this work.
