中文摘要

本文檢視「外傭政策」的設計並探討台籍與外籍女性家務工作者在此政策下之工作經驗與抗爭手段,以期詮釋國家政策如何在有制家務工作此議題上與性別、族群、階級不平等交織作用;並進而分析此政策如何造成不同階級與族群女性之利益街突,以重新思考女性主義者對於家務工作的論述策略。本研究發玩「外傭政策」剝削了在台灣處於階級或技群弱勢之女性,使之在勞動市場上形成競爭闕係,而中高收入家庭則得利於此,並在僱傭關係中再度主化了不同階級女性之街突。台灣女性主義者若欲持續推動家務照竣工作社會化之訴求,則須顧及在非正式部門工作女性之需求,為提升有酬家務工作者之薪資與自主性而努力,方可免於重蹈「外傭政策」之夜轍,再次壓迫處於階級及族群弱勢之女性,造成女性在家務工作此一議題上之意見街突。

英文摘要

This paper investigates foreign and native domestic workers' experiences and resistance under the ‘ForeignMaid Policy' in the 1990s Taiwan. Italso explores how the state policy of 'the foreign maid', intersected by gender, class and ethnicity, serves to divide the wornon's common interest of the socialization of domestic work. The finding suggests that the ‘ForeignMaid Policy' exploits and impoverishes the unprivileged foreign and native domes· tic workers in legal and economic terms to unburden wealthier women by keeping the costs of domestic service low, which thus further reinforces the class distinctions between women. The state power is discursively practiced through ethnic and class inequalities to divide women's collective interests. To transcend these divisions among women, Taiwanese feminists should take account of the interests of the unprivileged women. Only by challenging the low·paid and privatized nature of domestic work, and promoting the autonomy of domestic workers could Taiwanese feminists continue to foster the sociali· zation of domestic work successfully.
