abstract: 'This research is about the effects of women''s being a part of paid
|
||||
|
||||
employment on the usage of public places by using women''s daily life
|
||||
|
||||
experiences. Joining paid labour is a crucial strategy for women''s
|
||||
|
||||
empowerment policies. Working outside means leaving home, private space,
|
||||
|
||||
and being a part of the public places for women. But creating job
|
||||
|
||||
opportunities for women is not a magical tool that solves all the gender
|
||||
|
||||
inequalities, on the contrary, Marxist feminists argue that the gendered
|
||||
|
||||
structure of labour even expands the gap between genders. And feminist
|
||||
|
||||
geographers underline that women experience public places with a range
|
||||
|
||||
of barriers created by the patriarchal form of built environments. Even
|
||||
|
||||
the women have decent works, it is not easy for women to be in public
|
||||
|
||||
just because the built environment avoids their needs. But despite this
|
||||
|
||||
hopeless and adverse framework, microanalyses that focus on female
|
||||
|
||||
workers from developing countries show that women embrace working
|
||||
|
||||
outside of the home. And when they have proper conditions, they create
|
||||
|
||||
their empowerment strategies which are slow but deep and strong. This
|
||||
|
||||
study aims to reveal these empowerments strategies and the needed
|
||||
|
||||
necessary conditions from the usage of public place perspective. The
|
||||
|
||||
study case, Geyve in Sakarya, has rural and urban characteristics at the
|
||||
|
||||
same time. Patriarchal and religious values are deeply embedded in the
|
||||
|
||||
place. And these values affect the gender roles, labour, and the usage
|
||||
|
||||
of public places too. Traditionally, women used to work in the
|
||||
|
||||
agricultural sector as unpaid workers. And their public place usage is
|
||||
|
||||
limited. But in the 1990s, two food factories opened in Geyve and
|
||||
|
||||
offered uneducated women a job opportunity aside from the agricultural
|
||||
|
||||
sector. Women''s participation in paid labour in 30 years changed many
|
||||
|
||||
dynamics, usage of public places too. The study was conducted with the
|
||||
|
||||
feminist method, focusing on women''s standpoint, to understand these
|
||||
|
||||
changes from the women''s perspective. The main data source of this study
|
||||
|
||||
is the daily life experiences of blue-collar women. These daily life
|
||||
|
||||
experiences were obtained through in-depth interviews with twenty two
|
||||
|
||||
female workers. The factory representatives declared that the majority
|
||||
|
||||
of the female workers are married with children. For this reason, the
|
||||
|
||||
interviewees were mainly selected from married women with children. The
|
||||
|
||||
working conditions are critically important in women''s changing
|
||||
|
||||
behaviours, for this reason, the study focused on a work environment
|
||||
|
||||
where women work in the same environment with men, under the same
|
||||
|
||||
conditions, and have the same rights. In this context, the study didn''t
|
||||
|
||||
include Geyve''s automotive sector. Because this sector is mostly
|
||||
|
||||
dominated by men. And the textile sector is also out of the scope of the
|
||||
|
||||
study for a similar reason. Textile sector workers are mostly female
|
||||
|
||||
and, there is a strong gender hierarchy in this sector. The food
|
||||
|
||||
factories, which are built in the 1990s and have 1500 workers together,
|
||||
|
||||
provide the appropriate conditions for the study. In-deep interviews
|
||||
|
||||
focused on revealing gendered forms of public places, women''s
|
||||
|
||||
questioning interiorised gender roles, and the reflections of these
|
||||
|
||||
questionings on public place usage. The study showed that women''s
|
||||
|
||||
strategies diversify based on their marital status, owning children, and
|
||||
|
||||
age. For example, mothers with school-aged children justify their
|
||||
|
||||
existence in public places with their motherhood identity. And young and
|
||||
|
||||
single women prefer the same cafes as college students.
|
||||
|
||||
Older women with adult children do not care to be in public or
|
||||
|
||||
themselves, but they admire the youngsters and support their younger
|
||||
|
||||
female members. There are two important common statements from
|
||||
|
||||
interviews. All interviewees emphasised that they have the same rights
|
||||
|
||||
to be in public because they work under the same conditions as men, and
|
||||
|
||||
earn the same money. And they feel safe when they are surrounded by
|
||||
|
||||
other females when they are in public places. These two statements show
|
||||
|
||||
that although the women are aware of the unfair patriarchal form of
|
||||
|
||||
public places, they don''t try to demolish it to get their rights.
|
||||
|
||||
Instead of resisting, they bargain, negotiate, and create small freedom
|
||||
|
||||
areas for themselves. Joining paid labour and public life are crucial
|
||||
|
||||
elements of women''s empowerment. But women face many barriers in this
|
||||
|
||||
way because of the patriarchy. Having local information about the
|
||||
|
||||
women''s struggle and survival strategies can be helpful to create ideal
|
||||
|
||||
working places, empowerment policies, and place-making choices.
|
||||
|
||||
Hopefully, this study will be useful to understand women''s standpoint
|
||||
|
||||
and include their needs and struggles during the policy-making
|
||||
|
||||
processes.'
