摘要

在美国，生活在贫困中的黑人女性已经被证明发展了非传统的，或者我称之为非系统的，政治参与来对抗她们在政府权力面前的脆弱性。考虑到这一点，我提出了以下问题:什么样的“政治”概念框架最适合全面理解生活在美国的贫穷黑人妇女的政治?为了回答这个问题，我研究了一个人种学案例，研究了31名住在芝加哥公共住房的黑人女性在一年内(2011年至2012年)的政治行为。有证据表明，一些被边缘化的黑人妇女采用了一种经常隐藏的抵抗策略，以反对对她们的生活施加不成比例的权力。我所观察到的被边缘化的黑人妇女所使用的政治策略，最好的理解是使用一种扩展的、系统外的政治概念，由黑人女权主义政治理论提供信息。

Strategies of Resistance in the Everyday: The Political Approaches of Black Women Living in a Public Housing Development in Chicago

Black women living in poverty in the United States have been shown to develop non-traditional, or what I call extra-systemic, political engagement to combat their vulnerability to government power. With that in mind, I ask the following question: what conceptual framework of “politics” is best suited to fully understanding the politics of poor Black women living in the US? To answer this question, I examined an ethnographic case study of the politics of 31 Black women living in Chicago public housing, over the course of one year (2011 through 2012). The evidence suggests some marginalized Black women incorporate an oft-hidden resistance strategy against forces exerting a disproportionate amount of power over their lives. The political strategies used by the marginalized Black women I observed, were best understood using an expanded extra-systemic conceptualization of politics, informed by Black feminist political theory.

期刊介绍： The Journal of Women, Politics & Policy explores women and their roles in the political process as well as key policy issues that impact women''s lives. Articles cover a range of tops about political processes from voters to leaders in interest groups and political parties, and office holders in the legislative, executive, and judicial branches of government (including the increasingly relevant international bodies such as the European Union and World Trade Organization). They also examine the impact of public policies on women''s lives in areas such as tax and budget issues, poverty reduction and income security, education and employment, care giving, and health and human rights — including violence, safety, and reproductive rights — among many others. This multidisciplinary, international journal presents the work of social scientists — including political scientists, sociologists, economists, and public policy specialists — who study the world through a gendered lens and uncover how gender functions in the political and policy arenas. Throughout, the journal places a special emphasis on the intersection of gender, race/ethnicity, class, and other dimensions of women''s experiences.
