Sinopsis

This insightful new study explores an emerging and growing interest in Sociology and Organization Studies which concerns the meanings and experiences of âÇÖdirtyâÇÖ work. Based on a unique study of male street cleaners, refuse collectors, graffiti removers and butchers, and drawing on Bourdieu as a theoretical frame, it presents an âÇÖembodiedâÇÖ understanding of âÇÖdirtyâÇÖ work. Gender, Work and Occupation explores new avenues of workplace studies, highlighting how material conditions both support and constrain processes of occupation-based ideological constructions. Using original field research, the authors put forward a different agenda in terms of how we think about dirty work, and how we can explore and understand the âÇÖlived experiencesâÇÖ of dirty workers.á
