Abstract

Een van de hoofddoelstellingen van het emancipatiebeleid is het bevorderen van de economische zelfstandigheid van vrouwen, waarbij de mate van arbeidsparticipatie een belangrijk indicator is. In dit rapport wordt een analyse gemaakt van de verschillen in arbeidsparticipatie tussen de vier grootste groepen allochtone vrouwen in Nederland -namelijk Turkse, Marokkaanse, Surinaamse en Antilliaanse/Arubaanse vrouwen - in vergelijking tot die van autochtone vrouwen. Het onderzoek besteedt ruim aandacht aan de factoren die bij elke onderscheiden groep van invloed zijn op het feit dat zij wel of niet werken. Er wordt onder meer gekeken naar de invloed van de verblijfsduur in Nederland, de gevolgde opleiding, het al dan niet hebben van kinderen, de wijze van gezinsvorming en het al dan niet vormen van een éénoudergezin. In dit rapport wordt onderzocht welke factoren vrouwen op weg naar werk helpen en welke factoren drempels opwerpen. Er is aandacht voor de verschillende migratieachtergronden, de specifieke situaties bij de vrouwen thuis en de verschillen in opleidingsniveau.

Abstract

Women make up about half of the world's migrants, so it is little surprise that the international migration of women has been attracting significant attention in recent years. Most agree that global restructuring increasingly forces a large number of women in developing countries to emigrate to richer countries. But is poverty the only motivating factor? In Women in Motion, Nana Oishi examines the cross-national patterns of international female migration in Asia. Drawing on fieldwork in ten countries—both migrant-sending and migrant-receiving—the author investigates the differential impact of globalization, state policies, individual autonomy, and various social factors. This is the first study of its kind to provide an integrative approach to and a comparative perspective on female migration flows from multiple countries.

Abstract

Globalization is not a new phenomenon; women throughout the world have been dealing with the circumstances and consequences of an international economy long before the advent of the transnational corporate conglomerate. However, in a mercenary example of the tried clich "the more things change, the more they stay the same," women-particularly those of color-continue to be relegated to the lowest rung of the occupational ladder, where their indispensable contributions to global market capitalism are downplayed or invalidated completely through the perpetuation of stereotypes and the denial of access to better job opportunities and resources. How women of color around the world adapt and challenge the economic, political, and social effects of globalization is the subject of this broad-minded and incisive anthology. From Mexico, Jamaica, Ghana, Zimbabwe, and Sri Lanka, to immigrant and non-immigrant communities in the United States-the women documented in these essays are agricultural and factory workers, artists and entrepreneurs, mothers and activists. Their stories bear stark witness to how globalization continues to develop new sites and forms of exploitation, while its apparent victims continue to be women, men, and children of color.

Abstract

Journaliste Stella Braam dook anderhalf jaar onder in het ongeschoolde werk. Ze was ondermeer schoonmaakster, koffiedame, keukenhulp, kamermeisje en inpakster. Deze speurtocht leverde een indringend verslag op van de omstandigheden aan de onderkant van de Nederlandse arbeidsmarkt. Het is tevens een tocht naar de grenzen van het menselijk uithoudingsvermogen: haar collega's blijken blootgesteld aan ziekmakend werk, worden meestal onderbetaald, zijn 'flexibel' en vergeefs op zoek naar informatie over hun rechten en over veilig werken.

Abstract

Tech companies such as Google, Amazon, and Microsoft promote the free flow of data worldwide, while relying on foreign temporary IT workers to build, deliver, and support their products. However, even as IT companies use technology and commerce to transcend national barriers, their transnational employees face significant migration and visa constraints. In this revealing ethnography, Amy Bhatt shines a spotlight on Indian IT migrants and their struggles to navigate career paths, citizenship, and belonging as they move between South Asia and the United States.Through in-depth interviews, Bhatt explores the complex factors that shape IT transmigration and settlement, looking at Indian cultural norms, kinship obligations, friendship networks, gendered and racialized discrimination in the workplace, and inflexible and unstable visa regimes that create worker vulnerability. In particular, Bhatt highlights women's experiences as workers and dependent spouses who move as part of temporary worker programs. Many of the women interviewed were professional peers to their husbands in India but found themselves "housewives" stateside, unable to secure employment because of visa restrictions. Through her focus on the unpaid and feminized placemaking and caregiving labor these women provide, Bhatt shows how women's labor within the household is vital to the functioning of the flexible and transnational system of IT itself.
