摘要

工作场所目前是对移民工人等社会弱势群体歧视的主要场所之一,他们经常被要求在主管的领导下从事高度侮辱和卑微的工作,这些主管每天都对他们进行虐待和种族主义。本研究采用定性方法对居住在西班牙的厄瓜多尔移民工人进行了42次半结构化访谈,以探讨这些工人在日常工作场所感受到的歧视过程。调查结果清楚地表明,移民工人可能是日常歧视的受害者,与西班牙同行相比,他们受到的审查程度更高,信任度更低,他们的上司不遵守合同协议,这证明了这一点。由于这些移民被迫从事不那么合格的工作,他们缺乏认可,感觉自己被低估了。这项分析还收集了受访者每天受到上司——有时甚至是同事——的羞辱的证据,这些羞辱以种族歧视、言语辱骂和不平等待遇的形式出现,让他们感到无能为力和无助。事实上,我们的大多数受访者发现自己处于一种困境,他们不知道如何面对,也无法拒绝。所有这些因素都会导致屈辱感和缺乏独立性。

Processes of Discrimination and Humiliation Experienced by Ecuadorian Immigrant Workers in Spain
The workplace is currently one of the main places of discrimination for socially vulnerable groups such as immigrant workers, who are often required to take on highly stigmatized, menial jobs under supervisors who subject them to daily mistreatment and racism. This study adopted a qualitative approach to 42 semi‐structured interviews of Ecuadorian immigrant workers residing in Spain to explore the processes of discrimination these laborers feel in their everyday workplaces. The findings clearly indicate that immigrant workers can be victims of daily discrimination, which is evidenced by the higher degree of scrutiny and lower levels of trust they suffer compared to their Spanish counterparts, and by their supervisors’ lack of compliance with contractual agreements. As these immigrants are obliged to take on less qualified jobs, they suffer from a lack of recognition and a sense of being undervalued. This analysis also gathered evidence of interviewees’ daily humiliations imparted by their supervisors—and even, at times, by work colleagues—in the form of racial slurs, verbal abuse, and unequal treatment, leaving them feeling powerless and helpless. Most of our respondents in fact find themselves in a predicament they do not know how to confront and cannot reject. All of these factors lead to feelings of humiliation and lack of independence.

期刊介绍: Social Inclusion is a peer-reviewed open access journal, which provides academics and policy-makers with a forum to discuss and promote a more socially inclusive society. The journal encourages researchers to publish their results on topics concerning social and cultural cohesiveness, marginalized social groups, social stratification, minority-majority interaction, cultural diversity, national identity, and core-periphery relations, while making significant contributions to the understanding and enhancement of social inclusion worldwide. Social Inclusion aims at being an interdisciplinary journal, covering a broad range of topics, such as immigration, poverty, education, minorities, disability, discrimination, and inequality, with a special focus on studies which discuss solutions, strategies and models for social inclusion. Social Inclusion invites contributions from a broad range of disciplinary backgrounds and specializations, inter alia sociology, political science, international relations, history, cultural studies, geography, media studies, educational studies, communication science, and language studies. We welcome conceptual analysis, historical perspectives, and investigations based on empirical findings, while accepting regular research articles, review articles, commentaries, and reviews.
