Exploring the Role of Privilege in Migrant Women’s Self-Employment
用混合方法研究特权如何影响瑞典移民女性的自雇，发现某些群体从特权中获益更多，对理解移民异质性和自雇不平等有参考价值。
This paper launches a discussion for using privilege to understand migrant self-employment. Migrants are a heterogeneous and complex group, yet migrant self-employment studies have not yet considered how privilege provides opportunities or gains. Using mixed-methods this paper explores the role of privilege in migrant self-employment. Life course histories are combined with full-population register data to understand migrant self-employment and to provide a sense of privilege in process. Findings reveal theoretically and empirically how privilege shapes self-employment for women migrants in Sweden with certain groups benefitting more from privilege.
