Abstract
Ämnesord
Stäng
- The article aims to explore the embodied experience of processes of racialisation within service work with a special focus on what workers identify as central bodily strategies in defining them as the ‘other’. Theoretically, the analysis is inspired by the concept of everyday racism with a special focus on the central role of whiteness embedded in definitions of Swedishness. It also engages in dialog with postcolonial and feminist theories on the role of the body in relation to place and profession. Three practices evolve from the narratives as central to the processes of ‘othering’: looks, the repetitive question of origin and touches. The article consists primarily on 12 qualitative, in-depth interviews with service sectors employees who experience racism.
