本文借鉴的研究,进行了伦敦西部学习和技能理事会,对妇女的培训经验,有受抚养子女。我们认为,这项研究的一个显著启示是,女性使用和感知培训空间的方式往往与政府的意图不一致。为了帮助理解妇女对培训的使用和动机,我们利用“阈限”和私人/公共重叠的概念来解释妇女使用或不鼓励使用培训空间的方式。此外,在我们的研究中,女性如何在自己的生活中使用培训,这鼓励我们重新思考私人和公共之间的关系。有鉴于此,我们建议,培训和培训发生的地方,一直被忽视的过程和空间内的女权主义的地理,并可能有益地进一步探讨,以增加对妇女的照顾和家庭的角色和他们的角色在有偿工作场所的广泛文献。(c)2006爱思唯尔有限公司保留所有权利。
This paper draws upon research, conducted for the London West Learning and Skills Council, on the training experiences of women with dependent children. One of the striking revelations of the research, we suggest, is the way in which training spaces are used and perceived by women, which are often at odds with government intentions. To help make sense of women's use of, and motivation for, training we utilise the concept of 'liminality' and the private/public imbrication to explain the ways in which women use, or are discouraged from using, training spaces. Further, how the varied and multiple uses women in our research have put training to in their own lives has encouraged us to rethink the relationship between the private and the public more generally. In the light of this, we suggest that training and the places in which training take place, have been neglected processes and spaces within feminist geography and might usefully be explored further to add to an extensive literature on women's caring and domestic roles and their role in the paid workplace.
