Active representation and identity taxation: unintended outcome of representative labour?
基于代表性官僚理论,研究机构如何通过身份税将少数群体员工的主动代表用于制度表演目标,导致代表性劳动的非预期结果。基于对英国和爱尔兰高等教育机构中参与性别平等宪章计划(Athena SWAN)的35名学者和专业人士的访谈。
Drawing on the theory of representative bureaucracy, which shows that minority bureaucrats will actively represent the interests of minorities from the same sociodemographic group, we argue that institutions could use active representation for institutional performative goals through identity taxation resulting in an unintended outcome of representative labour. We contribute a novel conceptual model of representative labour, enhancing the understanding of the individual-organizational interface, through research involving 35 interviews with academics and professionals, who have a role in addressing gender inequality in British and Irish higher educational institutions through an equality charter award scheme, namely Athena SWAN.
