利用民族志的数据，关于男性移民家庭佣工，本文探讨了性别层面的种族化进程中，在意大利和法国。首先，它表明，雇主以及培训和招聘机构动员了对男性特征的具体种族化解释。这些对男性气质的理解与每个国家该部门的不同组织形式以及对移民融入社会的不同意识形态有关。第二，所提供的数据揭示了移徙男性家庭佣工在传统上女性化的部门中重申其男子气概的策略。在这样做的时候，这篇文章打算探讨国际移徙和职业性别化之间的联系，在家政服务的男性气质的建设和管理。最后，通过研究男性的经验，本文的目的是有助于更复杂的定义的国际分工的护理工作。
Drawing on ethnographic data concerning migrant male domestic workers, this article examines the gendered dimensions of the process of racialization in Italy and France. First, it shows that specific racialized constructions of masculinity are mobilized by the employers as well as by training and recruitment agencies. These constructions of masculinity are related to different forms of organization of the sector in each country and to different ideologies about the integration of migrants. Second, the data presented reveal the strategies used by migrant male domestic workers to reaffirm their masculinity in a traditionally feminized sector. In doing so, this article intends to explore the connections between international migration and the gendering of occupations, with regard to the construction and management of masculinities in domestic service. Finally, by examining men’s experiences, this article aims to contribute to a more complex definition of the international division of care work.
