‘Nimble’ intersectionality in employment research: a way to resolve methodological dilemmas
针对交叉性方法在就业研究中被认为难以实施的普遍看法，本文提出“灵活交叉性”概念，通过预先解决四个基本方法论问题，帮助研究者成功运用交叉性视角探索就业中的年龄、性别、族裔、种族和阶级问题。
This contribution proposes nimble intersectionality in response to McBride et al.’s article about intersectional research in the field of employment and industrial relations. Although the authors’ call for all researchers to be ‘intersectionally sensitive’ is positive, regrettably, by highlighting the problems with intersectional methods, they reinforce the widespread perception that they are too difficult to implement. While intersectionality is undeniably complex, this article argues that a nimble approach can help resolve methodological dilemmas. By resolving four basic methodological questions at the onset of a study, researchers can successfully use an intersectional approach to explore age, gender, ethnicity, race and class in employment.
