abstract: 'This study examines the effects of economic globalization on
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
occupational sex segregation and occupational inequality. A theory of
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
global economic restructuring and its impact on the quality of women''s
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
work suggests that national integration into the world economy
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
significantly expands opportunities for women in the workplace but does
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
not remove barriers to women''s advancement or ameliorate the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
predominance of low-paying, menial jobs held by women. Two measures of
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
gender occupational differentiation are employed as dependent variables
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
in cross-sectional OLS regression analyses of fifty-six countries using
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
data from 1970-1990. Results indicate that global economic forces reduce
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
occupational sex segregation and inequality. However, these effects are
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
determined by a country''s world system position and region. The analyses
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
illustrate that global economic restructuring is a gendered process that
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
transforms and builds upon existing gender inequalities. Therefore, the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
inclusion of global structural characteristics into comparative research
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
on occupational sex differentiation is essential.'
