这姐姐自己就没弄明白要说什么,二百多页看了快一个星期了,每次打开就像受刑一样……嗯,最大的收获是如果你不会文献综述你还不如不综述,免得有人读一次骂一次

评分读了两章,感觉比后面那本书好。讲述了时髦的“粉领”女工。传统的阶级理论已经无法解释文章里谈到的在“外企”里工作的普通打工妹的自我身份认同和阶级认同。对office space的分析很有趣。

High Tech and High Heels in the Global Economy is an ethnography of globalisation positioned at the intersection between political economy and cultural studies. Carla Freeman's fieldwork in Barbados grounds the processes of trans-national capitalism-production, consumption, and the crafting of modern identities-in the lives of Afro-Caribbean women working in a new high-tech industry called "informatics." It places gender at the centre of trans-national analysis, and local Caribbean culture and history at the centre of global studies. Freeman examines the expansion of the global assembly line into the realm of computer-based work, and focuses specifically on the incorporation of young Barbadian women into these high-tech informatics jobs. As such, Caribbean women are seen as integral not simply to the workings of globalisation but as helping to shape its very form. Through the enactment of "professionalism" in both appearances and labour practices, and by insisting that motherhood and work go hand in hand, they re-define the companies' profile of "ideal" workers and create their own "pink-collar" identities. Through new modes of dress and imagemaking, the informatics workers seek to distinguish themselves from factory workers, and to achieve these new modes of consumption, they engage in a wide array of extra income earning activities. Freeman argues that for the new Barbadian pink-collar workers, the globalisation of production cannot be viewed apart from the globalisation of consumption. In doing so, she shows the connections between formal and informal economies, and challenges long-standing oppositions between first world consumers and third world producers, as well as white-collar and blue-collar labour. Written in a style that allows the voices of the pink-collar workers to demonstrate the simultaneous burdens and pleasures of their work, High Tech and High Heels in the Global Economy will appeal to scholars and students in a wide range of disciplines, including anthropology, cultural studies, sociology, women's studies, political economy, and Caribbean studies, as well as labour and postcolonial studies
