本章讨论文化产业中按性别进行的工作“隔离”。根据我们的观察,我们概述了这种情况的一些主要形式:营销和公关角色中女性的比例很高;生产协调和类似角色中女性比例很高;更有声望的创造性角色的男性占据主导地位;以及技术工作由男性主导。然后我们转向解释:是什么性别动力驱动了这种按性别划分工作的模式?通过采访,我们声称,关于女性和男性独特属性的以下刻板印象或流行话语可能会影响这种隔离:女性更有爱心、更支持和更有教养;女性更善于沟通;女性更有组织能力;男性更有创造力,因为他们不受规则的约束。
This chapter addresses work ‘segregation’ by sex in the cultural industries. We outline some of the main forms this takes, according to our observations: the high presence of women in marketing and public relations roles; the high numbers of women in production co-ordination and similar roles; the domination of men of more prestigious creative roles; and the domination by men of technical jobs. We then turn to explanation: what gender dynamics drive such patterns of work segregation according to sex? Drawing on interviews, we claim that the following stereotypes or prevailing discourses, concerning the distinctive attributes of women and men, may influence such segregation: that women are more caring, supportive and nurturing; that women are better communicators; that women are ‘better organized’; and that men are more creative because they are less bound by rules.
