Читать книгу Care and Capitalism - Kathleen Lynch - Страница 30

Capitalism is not simply a form of hierarchical organization; it is a hierarchy in which people from particular backgrounds fill particular positions. Gender and racial hierarchies feed into the class hierarchies, playing a major role in determining who fills the empty class places. The capitalist economy works in and through a gendered and raced division of labour, including care labour and domestic labour, building on and exploiting pre-existing divisions of race, gender and status (Duffy 2005, 2011; Glenn 2010; Gutiérrez-Rodríguez 2014; Romero and Perez 2016; Folbre 2020). In so doing, it is not only a classed accumulation process but also a gendered and raced accumulation process.
