Women And Work in Indonesia by Michele Ford L
WOMEN AND WORK IN INDONESIA
This book examines the meaning of work for women in contemporary Indonesia. In focusing on women’s life experiences,
we assume a broad definition for the word ‘work’, including not only those activities that bring in income but also home duties, child care, healing, and civic work that fulfills obligations for maintaining social and community networks.
This in turn impels interrogation of assumptions about economic activity, remunerable activity, divisions of labor, state and other formal definitions of work, and ultimately about the public and private spheres.
His contributions to this book discuss women’s work in a range of different settings, both rural and urban, and in different locations in Sumatra. Lombok. Java, Sulawesi, and Kalimantan, and in Singapore and Malaysia.
A wide range of types of employment arc considered, including agricultural and domestic labor, industrial work, and new forms of work in the tertiary sector such as media and tourism, demonstrating how capitalism, globalization, and local culture together produce gendered patterns of work with particular statuses and identities.
