Early Retirement with Regard to Gender and Ethnic Marginalization

We conducted twenty-six semi-structured interviews with early retirees, recruited using the snowball method, revealing a range of push and pull factors influencing early retireme…
Multiple Invisibility
Although there is extensive research on invisible work and its relation to labor market performance, understanding this phenomenon from the perspective of women in multiple hierarchical positions in the Middle East remains limited. This study integrates a situated intersectionality perspective with the literature on invisible work mechanisms to examine how Palestinian–Arab women in Israel from various social locations perceive, experience, and ma…
Intersectionality of Marital Separation and Economic Abuse
This study employs a feminist explanation of marriage alongside an intersectional approach to explore the social forces that sustain economic abuse not only during marriage but also long after separation, by focusing on Palestinian Arab women in Israel-a socially and ethnically marginalized group.

Recent studies carried out in economically developed countries have shown that the household position indicated by education, income, and employment, related to the way the household tasks are shared by the spouses.

Obstacles à la participation des Palestiniennes au marché du travail en Israël
Bien que les Palestiniennes vivant en Israël aient récemment vu leur niveau d'études progresser, elles restent moins présentes que les femmes juives sur le marché du travail. Les auteurs s'appuient sur des données de l'enquête sur la population active et de l'enquête sociale couvrant la période 1995‐2016 pour examiner les facteurs susceptibles d'expliquer cet écart – facteurs socio‐économiques et démographiques, religiosité, capital humain, struc…

“Marriage was not an option”
This study explores the way Jewish women negotiate their crossing ethnoreligious borders in a deeply divided society through 15 in-depth interviews. Despite social, economic and political exclusion of Palestinians in Israel, in certain circumstances, the ethnic and religious borders are weakening. The core findings have led to three conclusions. First, ethnic mixed marriage occurs between Palestinian men and Jewish women from diverse groups with …

This article contributes to the integration of different manifestations of invisible work into a conceptual whole, especially in light of the fact that most research has confined itself to only one aspect such as care work, housework, or volunteering. Nine group interviews were conducted with Israeli mothers from differing ethnic, religious, class, and a…
