Juanita Elias
I-PEEL, 2015
Level: beginner
Perspective: Feminist Economics
Topic: Labour & Care, Race & Gender
Format: Learning Text
Link: http://i-peel.org/care/

The dossier explores the nature of care work and the gendered constructions and dichotomies that are associated with it. Drawing from feminist analysis the double burden, the undervaluation of feminised labour, the commodification of affective labour and the remittance economy are inquired into. Moreover, it is discussed how welfare regimes rely on the different organization of care work.
