Abstract

Although women’s labor force participation is rising, the German job market is characterized by a widespread lack of equal opportunities. Thus far, the everyday realities of migrants and their integration into the gendered processes on the job market have not been collected systematically. This is where Sara John begins her study by combining theoretical conceptions about gendering and ethnicizing on the job market. In a multidisciplinary approach, several entanglements surrounding the phenomenon ‘ethnicized labor’ are taken into account. These entanglements keep gaining importance and topicality against the backdrop of Germany as a country of immigration.
