Workplace Humiliation and the Organization of Domestic Work
研究印度加尔各答家政工人与雇主间的职场羞辱实践，揭示羞辱如何通过象征、性和身体方式使工人顺从，从而稳定不平等的权力关系并维持剥削性工作场所。
This study of domestic workers and employers in Kolkata (India) examines the significance of workplace humiliation as an important yet neglected concept for organization studies. It identifies practices of symbolic, sexual and physical workplace humiliation that shape corporeality and subjectivity in such a way that workers feel inferior, fearful and docile. Practices of workplace humiliation serve the purpose of social reproduction by stabilizing the existing skewed power relations between workers and employers, and making workers comply inexpensively with the harsh requirements of highly exploitative workplaces. In foregrounding humiliation as a key organizational mechanism, this study furthers understanding of workplace humiliation, oppression, caste and exploitation in organization studies.
