Abstract

In this article, we analyze the experience of the production (or genesis) of female subjectivity within a framework of the copper mining industry in northern Chile. We choose a biographical methodology that allows us to magnify the life story of a female union leader working in a male-dominated field in Chile. The findings show that female miners are under constant tension of subordination and subversion as members and leaders of a union that, until recently, had been dominated by males. Likewise, these women have had to search for validation while working during complex periods of female emancipation characterized by, on the one hand, grants of autonomy, and on the other hand, a means for domination caused by gender and labor gaps in the workplace.

摘要

在本文中，我们分析了智利北部铜矿产业框架内女性主体性的产生（或起源）的经验。我们选择了一种传记方法，使我们能够放大在智利男性主导的领域工作的女性工会领导人的生活故事。调查结果表明，女性矿工作为工会的成员和领导者，一直处于从属和颠覆的紧张状态，直到最近，该工会一直由男性主导。同样，在女性解放的复杂时期，这些女性不得不在工作时寻求认可，一方面是赋予自主权，另一方面是工作场所的性别和劳动力差距造成的支配手段。
