It focuses on the role of essentialism in stratifying labour markets based on gender, class and racialisation, and in limiting migrant women‘s employment opportunities. Based on multi-sited fieldwork conducted in France and Italy, the book highlights how essentialism influences the assessment of working capacities, stressing that skills are socially constructed and valued depending on who embodies them. It also emphasises that migrant women and labour market gatekeepers are not only passively accepting essentialism, but some are also resisting and eventually challenging this process. Deconstructing essentialism enables us to better understand the mechanisms that produce stratifications and aids in designing paths towards more equal access to employment.. | 出版日期 | Book 2022 | 关键词 | discrimination; education; essentialism; intersectionality; labour market; migrant women; racism; skilled m | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-031-14399-1 | isbn_ebook | 978-3-031-14399-1 | copyright | The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer Nature Switzerl |
