This article sets the gendered effects of low-wage, cross-border labor in Palestine within a global frame of uneven development. Drawing on fieldwork close to Checkpoint 300, between Bethlehem and Jerusalem, we first provide an account that centers Palestinian women’s social reproduction as coconstitutive of male cross-border employment in the Israeli economy. Discussion then moves to consider gendered work in apartheid-era South Africa with the intention not to draw analogies but to explore how labor articulation situated South Africa within the power geometries of globalization. Returning with these analytical tools, we undertake a relational comparison to reconsider the cross-border as a global space. Cutting-edge security technologies and migrants from Thailand are some of the new objects, ideas, and people that coalesce and reshape Palestinian domestic life. The gendered effects of social reproduction are thus connected to both Israel’s military occupation and its location within global capitalism. The article makes three key contributions by (1) foregrounding women in discussion of cross-border labor, (2) explicating state–global relations in regimes of segregation, and (3) mobilizing relational comparison as a tool for understanding local exploitation within global structures.

关系比较:全球框架内巴勒斯坦跨境工作的性别效应

本文将巴勒斯坦低工资、跨境劳动力的性别影响置于发展不平衡的全球框架内。利用伯利恒和耶路撒冷之间 300 号检查站附近的实地调查,我们首先提供了一个说明,将巴勒斯坦妇女的社会再生产作为以色列经济中男性跨境就业的共同组成部分。然后讨论转向考虑种族隔离时代南非的性别工作,其目的不是进行类比,而是探讨劳动力的衔接如何将南非置于全球化的权力几何中。回到这些分析工具,我们进行了关系比较,以重新考虑跨境作为一个全球空间。尖端的安全技术和来自泰国的移民是一些新的对象、想法、以及凝聚和重塑巴勒斯坦家庭生活的人们。因此,社会再生产的性别效应与以色列的军事占领及其在全球资本主义中的位置有关。这篇文章做出了三个关键贡献:(1)在讨论跨境劳工时突出女性,(2)在隔离制度中解释国家-全球关系,以及(3)动员关系比较作为理解全球结构中地方剥削的工具.
