Abstract

Initially with the massive outbreak of COVID-19, physical distancing in the form of stay-at-home campaigns made the headlines The most stringent lockdown period in India was envisaged by the privileged class as a productive time at home I show that the home as a space of leisure and intimacy is also a site of caste and gender privilege that upholds the social division of labour By looking at both the work of home and the work from home, I problematise the notion of productivity from home and argue for a renewed understanding of what constitutes work and what constitutes home as an intimate space © The Author(s)

生产力大流行

最初，随着2019冠状病毒病的大规模爆发，以居家运动的形式保持身体距离成为头条新闻。印度最严格的封锁期被特权阶层视为在家生产的时间。我表明，家作为休闲和亲密的空间，也是种姓和性别特权的场所，维护着社会分工。我对在家工作的概念提出了质疑，并主张重新理解什么是工作，什么是作为亲密空间的家。©作者

期刊介绍： Anthropology in Action (AIA) is a peer-reviewed journal publishing articles, commentaries, research reports, and book reviews in applied anthropology. Contributions reflect the use of anthropological training in policy- or practice-oriented work and foster the broader application of these approaches to practical problems. The journal provides a forum for debate and analysis for anthropologists working both inside and outside academia and aims to promote communication amongst practitioners, academics and students of anthropology in order to advance the cross-fertilisation of expertise and ideas. Recent themes and articles have included the anthropology of welfare, transferring anthropological skills to applied health research, design considerations in old-age living, museum-based anthropology education, cultural identities and British citizenship, feminism and anthropology, and international student and youth mobility.
