摘要

随着covid -19大流行的消退,我们中的许多人回到了工作场所的物理场所,对什么是工作、工作空间、同事、客户和专业互动进行了重新配置。尽管2022年第二期所介绍的研究是在疫情大规模关闭之前进行的,但这五篇专题文章非常及时地反映了与工作概念相关的这些领域、空间和地点的性别不平等和权力动态。这些贡献的范围从信息技术和采矿等传统男性主导行业的定性案例研究,到公共部门医疗保健的混合方法探索,在丹麦,nora -北欧女权主义和性别研究杂志目前的总部所在地,以“kvindefag”一词-妇女的工作明显地表现出来。他们一起展示了当代女权主义研究如何能够为正在进行的学术和公众辩论做出贡献,这些辩论是关于工作条件和性别规范的,现在可能比以往任何时候都更多,多点,分层的组织和工作生活领域。我们以“护理中的矛盾:瑞典公共部门病房护士的工作和管理经验”作为这一问题的开端,其中丽贝卡·塞尔伯格、马格努斯·桑德伯格和宝拉·穆里纳里主张重新关注女权主义对资本主义的组织批评。她们建议,女权主义者应该超越对新公共管理体制的关注,去探索劳动力和资本之间矛盾的具体空间、过程和背景,正如她们所写的,“重塑关怀的本质”。他们对在瑞典公共卫生保健系统工作的50名病房护士的访谈进行了定性分析,正是针对这一点,显示了护理工作和资本逻辑之间的矛盾如何在护士之间进行谈判。继这篇发人深省的文章之后,丽莎·林格布洛姆在《这只是一个笑话!“非正式互动和地下性别过程”从瑞典采矿业的角度审视了工作场所的性别不平等,特别关注“幽默”的非正式互动,如开玩笑。她的研究表明,工作场所的玩笑是如何维持和挑战组织的性别规范和流程的,因此,揭示了经常被忽视的非正式的、同事间的闲聊“实际上不仅是一个笑话”,而且后果非常严重。“IT专业人员的性别工作生活意识形态”同样以男性主导的行业为经验起点,在芬兰的信息技术领域。在他们的研究中,Suvi Heikkinen和markKivijärvi专注于工作与生活关系的话语构建,他们发现并描述了两种截然不同的工作与生活意识形态,这两种意识形态似乎产生了不同的性别机构、规范和期望,塑造了工人如何调和工作与生活。他们认为,这些意识形态可能会对it行业中跨性别认同的员工产生负面影响。由于医疗保健专业人员是最容易遭受性骚扰的群体之一,艾琳·特里斯、伊莉斯·弗瑞希·弗瑞伯、莱拉·诺德斯特兰德·伯格、Åsta洛维兹·哈夫斯塔德·伊斯特布兰、Claudia Klostergaard和Hanne Drangsholt在他们名为“热门案例工作者和眯眼妓女”的混合方法研究中,开始研究学生和高等教育机构如何处理和实践与这一风险相关的培训。研究表明,学生在实践中遭遇性骚扰,事件发生时和事件发生后往往缺乏指导,除此之外,学生还会经历性骚扰事件的负面后果。研究表明,处理性骚扰的责任通常是NORA-NORDIC FEMINIST AND GENDER RESEARCH JOURNAL 2022, VOL. 30, NO. 5。2,79 - 80 https://doi.org/10.1080/08038740.2022.2074664

Editorial
With the Covid-19-pandemic decreasing, many of us have returned to the physical sites of our workplaces with re-configured ideas about what constitutes work, the workspace(s), colleagues, clients and professional interactions. Though the studies presented in this second issue of 2022 were undertaken before the mass shutdowns of the pandemic, the five articles featured provide very timely reflections on gender inequality and the power dynamics in these exact spheres, spaces and places, connected to the concept of work. The contributions range from qualitative case studies in traditional male-dominated industries, such as Information Technology and mining, to mixed methods explorations in public sector healthcare, which in Denmark, where NORA—Nordic Journal of Feminist and Gender Research is currently based, is tellingly characterized under the term “kvindefag”—women’s work. They come together in showing how contemporary feminist research can contribute to ongoing scholarly and public debates about working conditions and gender norms in the, perhaps now more than ever, multi-sited, stratified field of organizationaland working life. We open this issue with “Contradictions in care: Ward nurses’ experiences of work and management in the Swedish public sector”, in which Rebecca Selberg, Magnus Sandberg and Paula Mulinari argue for a refocusing of feminist organizational critique of capitalism. Feminists should, they suggest, move beyond the focus on New Public Management-regimes to explore the specific spaces, processes, and contexts in which contradictions between labour and capital are, as they write, “reshaping the very essence of care”. Their qualitative analysis of interviews with 50 ward nurses working in the public health care system in Sweden is aiming at precisely this, showing how contradictions between care work and logics of capital are negotiated amongst the nurses. Following this thought-provoking contribution, Lisa Ringblom in “‘It is Just a Joke!’ Informal Interaction and Gendered Processes Underground” examines workplace gender inequality from the perspective of the Swedish mining industry, paying special attention to “humorous” informal interaction, such as banter. Her study shows how workplace banter works to both maintain and challenge gendered norms and processes of organizations and so, reveal that informal, collegial chatter, that often goes unnoticed is ”in fact not just (italics!) a joke”, but very serious in its consequences. “Gendered work–life ideologies among IT professionals” similarly takes its empirical starting point in a male-dominated industry, in this case that of Information Technology in Finland.
