摘要本文以第二代跨国婚姻为研究对象，分析跨国婚姻塑造第二代女性工作依恋的过程。基于对挪威第二代巴基斯坦裔妇女的深入访谈，沿着她们的一些丈夫，本文确定了跨国婚姻可以塑造妇女对工作的依恋的三个过程：1）关于儿童保育和妇女就业的相互冲突的期望; 2）不稳定的性别权力关系; 3）经济不稳定。与公众担心跨国婚姻会阻碍第二代妇女就业相反，这项研究表明，跨国婚姻可以激励第二代妇女从事有报酬的工作。
Abstract This article studies transnational marriages among the second generation and analyses the processes through which transnational marriages shape second-generation women’s attachment to work. Based on in-depth interviews with second-generation women of Pakistani descent in Norway, along with some of their husbands, the article identifies three processes through which transnational marriages can shape women’s attachment to work: 1) conflicting expectations concerning childcare and women’s employment; 2) unsettled gendered power relations; and 3) economic instability. Contrary to the public concern that transnational marriages will impede second-generation women’s employment, this study suggests that marrying transnationally can create incentives for second-generation women’s paid work.
