摘要

无偿看护是一个世界性的现象。42%的女性因为要照顾孩子而找不到工作。妇女和女童承担着世界上75%以上的无偿护理工作。联合国可持续发展目标5和具体目标5.4旨在促进妇女和护理提供者的权利和福祉,但如果无偿护理工作不断增加的趋势得不到遏制,这些目标将无法实现。为了探究目前无偿护理工作的发展,本文批判性地考察了三个国家的趋势:英国、尼日利亚和加纳。这项研究很重要,因为尽管人们多年来一直意识到这一点,但在全球范围内,无偿护理工作的情况似乎存在不平衡的变化。性别刻板印象仍然是一个文化问题。本文运用了交替铸造理论和文本内容分析法。该研究的结论是,仍有必要改善无偿护理工作的状况,因为在一些国家的国民经济指标中,这一状况没有得到充分的反映。

Current Trend in Gender Stereotypes and Unpaid Care Work: Evidence From Three Countries, the UK, Nigeria, and Ghana
Unpaid caregiving is a worldwide phenomenon. 42% of women cannot secure jobs because they are responsible for caregiving. Women and girls undertake more than 75% of unpaid care work in the world. The UN Sustainable Development Goals 5 and target 5.4 aim to promote the rights and well-being of women and care providers but will remain unattainable if the rising trend in unpaid care work is ‘unchecked’. To interrogate present developments in unpaid care work, this article critically examines the trend in three countries: the United Kingdom, Nigeria, and Ghana. This study is important because, despite years of awareness, there appears to be an uneven change in the situation of unpaid care work globally. Gender stereotypes continue to be a cultural concern. This paper leveraged the Altercasting Theory and textual content analysis method. The study concludes that there is still a need to improve the situation of unpaid care work as it is not adequately indexed in the national economic indicators of some countries.
