Visible Hands – Invisible Women: Garment Production in Turkey
研究了土耳其服装产业出口成功背后基于性别的劳动不平等，揭示生产组织、工作场所关系如何嵌入并再生产性别意识形态，以及女性通过亲属关系被纳入非正规生产体系的过程。
Abstract The economic liberalization policies that started in the early 1980s marked a turn in Turkey's growth strategy by shifting it from import substitution to export orientation. Since then, the garment industry has been one of the top exporters, drawing on women as the main suppliers of informal labor for the industry through subcontracted and home-based piecework. Based on fieldwork, this paper examines the gender inequalities that underlie the export success of the garment industry, in which the organization of production and workplace relations embed and reproduce gender ideology and norms. Women's engagement in garment production is ensured through the articulation of women's subordinate position with the social organization of garment production and the mobilization of kinship relations. The continued expansion of garment exports and the ongoing informalization of nonagricultural employment, according to official estimates, suggest that these arrangements are becoming more extensive over time.
