- First question:
- A global care chain refers to a series of caregiving relationships across different geographical locations. Rosemarie, as a migrant nanny in Singapore, sends money to support her children being cared for in the Philippines. This forms a chain where care work (Rosemarie's nanny work) and care - receiving (her children being cared for) are part of an international caregiving network.
- Domestic outsourcing usually refers to outsourcing work within a country, not across international borders for caregiving. A stalled revolution is not relevant to this care - giving and financial support context. The care work ethic is too broad and not specific to this cross - border care and financial transfer situation.
- Second question:
- An androcentric pay scale is a pay system that is centered around male - dominated norms. The fact that female - dominated jobs earn less regardless of industry, unionization, etc., shows that the pay scale is biased in a way that undervalues female - dominated work, which is characteristic of an androcentric (male - centered) pay scale.
- Specialized division of labor is about the division of work tasks, not about pay differences. Feminization of poverty is more about the increasing proportion of women in poverty, but this question is specifically about pay differences between male - and female - dominated jobs. Job segregation is about the separation of jobs by gender, but the key here is the pay difference, not just the segregation.
