It engages the reader in much broader debates about the mutual relations of class and gender, the role of patriarchal controls in shaping informal female labor markets and the management of status differentials by women in their daily lives. An important scholarly contribution written in a lucid and accessible style.\"\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e-\u003cb\u003eDeniz Kandiyoti\u003c\/b\u003e, School of Oriental and African Studies, University of London\u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003ci\u003e\"\u003c\/i\u003eUntidy Gender\u003ci\u003e makes contributions to a large number of debates in several social science fields and sub-fields. And it does so on an extraordinarily sound methodological base: Ozyegin was able to construct a random sample for her 'women in the basement.' This is the gold standard of research, and may be unique in the research annals of studies of domestic workers.\"\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e-\u003cb\u003eRae Lesser Blumberg\u003c\/b\u003e, William R.

Through a careful ethnographic study of paid domestic work, Ozyegin illuminates the varied ways in which relations of class and gender inequalities are shaped and maintained. American audiences interested in rural-urban migrants, in intersectionalities of race, class, and gender, and in identities, power, and resistance in the workplace will find some of the most compelling ethnography and many valuable theoretical nuggets in this book.\"\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e-\u003cb\u003ePierrette Hondagneu-Sotelo\u003c\/b\u003e, Associate Professor, Department of Sociology, University of Southern California\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eInterviews with Turkish maids yield surprising facts about class and gender roles\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"Temple University Press","offers":[{"title":"Brand New","offer_id":52619286708504,"sku":"9781566398084","price":23.66,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/untidy-gender-domestic-service-in-turkey-paperback-softback-9781566398084","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
