Women's Accounts of Organizational Politics as a Gendering Process

Organizational politics is implicated in all levels of organizational functioning, from power structures and informal interaction to individual identity. This study argues that organizational politics provides an approach to examining professional women's experiences of organizations as gendered. Women graduates in male‐dominated organizations claimed not to be limited by explicit discrimination, but they construct organizational politics as being masculine in character and as a barrier to their careers. These women represent organizational politics as irrational, aggressive, competitive and instrumental, leading to individual, not organizational, success. Their accounts undermine the stereotypical dichotomy of masculine rationality and feminine emotion by claiming that women behave reasonably and by focusing on emotion in men's political game playing. However, claiming to be rational and rejecting politics, while acknowledging its role in career success, is uncomfortable for ambitious women. They risk sabotaging their own position by appearing too sensitive to engage in the less savoury aspects of organizational life. Organizational political processes are seen as fundamental to gender in organizations, first, because political activity is seen as gendered and masculine and contrary to female identity; secondly, because politics is part of the informal system which constructs organization from which outsiders are excluded; and finally, because political activity is linked to the performance, achievement and maintenance of power.     

Gender in/and/of Health Inequalities

The relationship between gender and health inequalities is potentially complicated, raising questions for health and social research, practice and policy. In this paper, I use two population health case studies – obesity and smoking – to explore the interplay between gender and socioeconomic position. The cases show that, on its own, neither dimension of inequality affords a comprehensive picture of these significant risks to public health. Furthermore, historical change in the socioeconomic and gendered distribution of these health risks suggests that gender is best considered as a dynamic and layered form of differentiation, rather than as a simple or stable dichotomy. A more nuanced approach to the analysis of gender and health has the potential to generate both more fruitful research and more effective health and social policy.     

人力资本与户籍歧视——基于浙江省企业职工调查数据的研究

利用最近浙江省企业职工调查数据所进行的关于人力资本对城乡户籍歧视影响的研究结果显示,工资差异的80%是由个体特征差异引起的,另外20%是由歧视造成的;城乡户籍歧视主要发生在高中组.该群体的受歧视程度高达45.9%,其次为大学组和初中组,分别为29.5%和-2.0%.这一结果使那种认为教育程度的提高能够降低受歧视程度的假说在中国城乡劳动力市场上得不到很好的验证.另一种补充的假说,即职业竞争假说认为,由于民工荒的存在,低学历的农民工在差的职业岗位上供不应求,其岗位竞争激烈程度较弱,因此歧视影响较小,而高中组遭受严重歧视是因为职业岗位竞争激烈,使得该群体的一部分在同等条件下接受低于城市本地人的工资收入.消除城乡户籍歧视和工资差异,关键在于建立公平、公正和平等的就业环境.     

伍尔夫“双性共体”理论探析

从伍尔夫提出的“双性共体“即每个人头脑中普遍受男女两性的两种力量的制约,两种力量融合的完美精神境界是作家最理想的创作状态这一思想入手,阐述了她将“双性共体“的理念融进《奥兰多》,《达洛卫夫人》等多部作品,对两性平等的追求和两性和睦相处的愿望。针对伍尔夫的“双性共体“的理念的局限性,对其内容重新阐释和拓展,结果表明无论是遭到否定,还是被重新阐释,“双性共体“的理念始终生机勃勃,并具有实际的理论研究价值。

论后选举权初期美国妇女的参政困境——基于社会性别视角

获得选举权揭开了美国妇女参与选举政治的序幕.但由于内化了贤妻良母的传统社会性别身份,美国妇女在后选举权初期未能积极参与投票.即使参与投票,她们亦无法只依据自我的社会性别身份而形成统一“投票集团”.因对社会性别平等有着不同理解,各女权组织间分歧严重,这无形中消减了妇女的参政效应.通过社会性别视角,文章着力剖析后选举权初期美国妇女的参政困境.     

视角的言说——徐坤小说女性主义叙事模式解析

徐坤前期作品中性别置换视角模式的运用与超越,是一种“花木兰替父从军”式的写作策略,是徐坤以迂回战术实现对男性权威的拆解与颠覆,同时作家也借助这一策略在主流话语中为自己赢得了一份言说的权力,树立了自己的话语权威;接着徐坤转用女性视角模式,以理性目光不断审视女性在男权社会中所处的逼仄境遇（失语、失声、失身）和女性自身所存在的一些问题。

文化英雄与性别叙事——对李连杰电影《霍元甲》的一种女性主义解读

<霍元甲>的经典形象是民族意识和男性话语的历史产物.2007年由李连杰主演的同名电影对这一文化经典的重新演绎,虽然已经意识到以往完全被忽视的女性形象和性别符号,然而在突出呈现文化英雄的民族主义话语的同时,仍然落入父权主义和男权话语的历史叙事模式.运用当代女性主义理论,通过深入解读影片中的性别形象内涵,从而揭示出在民族英雄的历史叙事中被传统父权话语所遮蔽的性别批评空间.
