The implications of digital technologies for the transformation of gender relations and identities have been discussed since the early days of the internet. Although gender studies have identified clear gender gaps in terms of digital inclusion as well as potentialities for the transformation of women’s subjectivity, there is a lack of empirical evidence of the impact of digitalization in terms of time use from a gender perspective. Public policies have begun to address the digital gender gap, but the incorporation of a gender perspective in digital inclusion programmes which promotes women’s emancipation by challenging the gender division of time through use of the internet has been not incorporated in the digital policies agenda. This article aims to provide empirical evidence of the mutual interrelation between the time allocation and digital inclusion from a gender perspective. It considers how gender inequalities in time use shape women’s experience of digital inclusion and, at the same time, how digital inclusion promotes the reconfiguration of time in women’s everyday lives. Qualitative analysis based on episodic interviews explored the representations and practices of internet use by women in their everyday lives. The sample was made up of 32 women who were digitally included through a lifelong learning programme in Spain and had experienced the effects of the Spanish economic crisis. The article argues that digital inclusion does not automatically lead to a more egalitarian allocation of time use for women, but rather places greater value on women’s free time.

数字包容的含义：从性别角度看时间使用方面的数字化

自互联网诞生之初，就已经讨论了数字技术对性别关系和身份转变的影响。尽管性别研究已经在数字包容性以及改变女性主观性的潜力方面确定了明显的性别差距，但从性别角度来看，缺乏数字化对时间使用的影响的经验证据。公共政策已开始解决数字性别鸿沟，但数字政策议程并未纳入将性别观点纳入数字包容性计划中，该计划通过利用互联网挑战时间的性别分工来促进妇女的解放。本文旨在从性别角度为时间分配与数字包容之间的相互关系提供经验证据。它考虑了时间上的性别不平等如何影响女性的数字包容体验，同时，数字包容如何促进女性日常生活中的时间重构。基于情景访谈的定性分析探索了妇女在日常生活中使用互联网的方式和实践。样本由32位女性组成，这些女性通过西班牙的终身学习计划被数字纳入，并经历了西班牙经济危机的影响。该文章认为，数字包容并不会自动导致女性对时间使用的分配更为平均，而是赋予女性空闲时间更大的价值。
