Abstract
Este artículo vincula género, trabajo y cárcel para problematizar variadas formas de integración a la sociedad y al mercado laboral. Se analiza el caso de mujeres recluidas por micro-tráfico en el sistema penitenciario chileno. El estudio se basa en 30 entrevistas semi-estructuradas realizadas a reclusas del CPF Santiago durante el año 2013, explorando la trayectoria laboral y la definición de trabajo de mujeres privadas de libertad. Esta investigación visibiliza la situación de mujeres marginadas en múltiples dimensiones y muestra cómo las actividades ilegales y la posición social de estas mujeres cuestionan y reproducen el orden social. Se ilustra así la estandarización del trabajo moderno y modos atípicos de participación laboral, problematizando formas emergentes de integración en el capitalismo flexible.
This paper explores the relation between gender, work and imprisonment by problematizing the various ways in which women seek to integrate into the labour market. We analyse the case of women inmate in Chile who have been convicted of micro trafficking. The methodology is based on 30 semi-structured interviews with women prisoners in Santiago in 2013. We explore their work trajectories and their definitions of work. The study visualizes the situation of marginalized women in multiple dimensions, showing how their illegal activities and their social position (re)produce and challenge the social order. The study illustrates the standardization of modern work by highlighting atypical forms of labour participation, and problematizes ways in which women try to integrate themselves under flexible capitalism.
