职业流动的性别差异研究--一种社会网络的分析视角

Gender Differences in Occupational Mobility:A social network approach

随着女权运动逐渐进入学术研究领域,劳动力市场的性别不平等问题目益得到学者的关注。本文以职业流动的性别差异问题为核心,从社会网络分析的视角进行研究。通过2009年中国8城市"社会网络与职业经历"问卷调查数据的分析,探讨社会网络因素对于男性和女性实现职业流动的影响,本文得出以下三点结论:社会网络能够有效地提高男性和女性现职地位获得的可能性且对女性的影响大于男性;在影响男性和女性的社会网络因素中,社会网络规模、网络资源和关系强度都呈现出了一定的性别差异;经济转型增加了女性实现职业流动的可能性。

With the feminist movement gradually entering the field of academic research,gender inequality in the labor market has been increasingly studied by scholars.This paper analyzes gender differences in occupational mobility from the perspective of social networks.Using the data of 2009JSNET survey of eight cities,the authors investigate how the factors of social networks influence men and women in achieving occupational mobility.The results show that:social networks can significantly improve the possibility to the current job attainment,but the effect for women is higher than men;there are gender differences in network size,network resources and the strength of ties;economic transformation has increased the likelihood of achieving occupational mobility for women.
