Pour que la loi ne reste pas lettre morte
Les auteurs évaluent dans quelle mesure la loi péruvienne n° 31047/2020, qui accorde à la main‐d‘œuvre domestique les mêmes droits et la même protection sociale qu'aux autres travailleurs, a réellement amélioré l'accès de ces employés à un contrat écrit et aux droits. À partir de données de l'enquête nationale auprès des ménages, d'entretiens et d'un groupe de discussion, ils constatent que les droits des travailleurs sont en grande partie restés…
Family Bonds
In this article we share the findings resulting from interviews with 25 female domestic workers in Lima between August and December of 2016. We argue that the experiences of these workers, who migrate from the provinces to the capital city of Lima as minors, frequently qualify them as victims of human trafficking – not because they are forced to move or deceitfully recruited, but due to their exploitation as adolescent domestic workers. We also a…
I Did Not Choose to Be in Your Country’
Drawing on 72 interviews with Venezuelan migrant women across five Peruvian cities between 2018 and 2020, this article discusses the prevailing intersectional discriminations they have experienced. I also explore their resistance to social marginalizations that position them along a social-racial hierarchy based on xenophobia, sexism, and racialization. My research has found that their responses to these treatments are to reposition themselves as…
Of prostitutes and thieves
Based on 12 months of fieldwork, including 72 in-depth interviews and a survey (N100) in five Peruvian cities, this article discusses the higher rates of nationality-, gender-, and age-based discrimination faced by Venezuelan female migrants in Peru, compared to their male counterparts, as well as their experiences with hyper-sexualisation and/or criminalisation. We suggest that these processes, which are grounded on constructions of moral integr…
Ser mujer y migrante en tiempos de covid-19
El presente artículo analiza la experiencia laboral de las mujeres venezolanas migrantes y su participación en el mercado laboral peruano afectado por la pandemia por covid-19 y las medidas cautelares del Estado peruano desde marzo de 2020. Sostenemos que el caso venezolano en Perú es una muestra más de cómo la migración coloca a las mujeres en posiciones laborales segmentadas por género y condición de migrante. Asimismo, identificamos que por la…
Vulnerable Women in a Thriving Country
Paid domestic workers represent a historically discriminated-against group comprising mostly ethnically marginalized, resource-poor migrant women. In twenty-first-century Peru, social and labor rights have not improved significantly for those in the sector despite more than a decade of sustained economic growth that took off in 2002 and lasted until 2014. Though the present national trend suggests that the absolute number of workers in this secto…
My Brother the “Other”
While the criminalization and hyper‐sexualization of Venezuelanmigrants and refugees across South America have received growing scholarly attention, fairly little is known about the coping strategies of migrants in this context. In this article, we build on quantitative and qualitative data from a survey (N = 100), 72 in‐depth interviews, and five focus groups with Venezuelan immigrants in five Peruvian cities, collected between 2018 and 2020, to…
Venezuelan Women in Peru
The Ongoing Institution of Servitude
Through a peek at one family’s life, Roma offers a glimpse at the burgeoning middle class, privileged not only by race and family inheritances but also by new possibilities of supposedly merit-based higher education
Caring for the Mine”
A “service provision” value chain that sustains the activities of the Las Bambas copper mine cuts across rural communities and the mining town, connected by the invisibilized work of indigenous and/or migrant women, through their maintenance of the rural homestead, or in their provision of feminized services, essential to men who work in the urban center near the mine. We argue that in this case women’s access to mining’s benefits and/or jobs in …
On her shoulders
Poorly paid – sometimes unpaid – domestic workers represent one of the few viable options for household and care support in Peru, where the state is weak in its provision of services and protection. I argue that social hierarchies established through the coloniality of power and the coloniality of gender add a layer of complexity to workers ́ lived intersectionality of gender, indigeneity, rurality and migration status. It ends up positioning the…
Vulnerable Women in a Pandemic
Paid domestic workers (PDWs) in Peru, who are predominantly women, are one of the most vulnerable labour sectors in the country. We argue that an important factor explaining this is linked to national legislation that grants only partial rights to the sector, thus maintaining inferior labour conditions for such workers. Here we share our analysis of a survey of 314 PDWs, conducted between April and May 2020, confirming that PDWs in Peru are highl…
Las cuidadoras de los mineros
La presente investigación aspira a contribuir a este creciente cuerpo de literatura y a la necesaria conversación política sobre los vínculos entre minería, género, economía del cuidado y desarrollo. Para ello, compartimos los resultados de nuestro caso de estudio exploratorio y cualitativo enfocado en la provincia de Cotabambas, en Apurímac, la zona del país que recibe la mayor cantidad de inversión minera y concentra la cartera de proyectos más…
Determining What We Stand for Will Guide What We Do
Prisoners, ex-offenders, and the communities they belong to constitute a distinct and highly vulnerable population, and research must be sensitive to their priorities. In light of recent suggestions that scientific experimentation involving prisoners be reconsidered, community-based participatory research can be a valuable tool for determining the immediate concerns of prisoners, such as the receipt of high-quality and dignified health care insid…

Community Health Workers
Community health workers are resources to their communities and to the advocacy and policy world on several levels. Community health workers can connect people to health care and collect information relevant to policy. They are natural researchers who, as a result of direct interaction with the populations they serve, can recount the realities of exclusion and propose remedies for it. As natural researchers, they contribute to best practices whil…
Accessible, Community-Based Care for Men in Distressed Communities
The October 2005 issue on prison health shines a spotlight on a sad reality: too many men are receiving health care in the prison system because they did not receive it in a community-based setting. Why? Why, in light of clear evidence pointing to the link between incarceration and men’s health, do we continue to warehouse so many of our men in prison? Why are we not adequately investing in a system of care that could prevent them from being ther…
