    Discussing the theoretical linkage between intersectionality, social theory and social inequality
    (Springer, 2011)
    Degele, Nina
    ;
    Winker, Gabriele
    The following article argues that an in depth analysis of different living conditions requires a theoretical and empirical perspective which does not only take into account class but also other categories of social inequality such as gender, race and body. Departing from the idea that these categories are mutually intertwined, the article suggests an intersectional multi-layered approach which allows to examine reciprocal effects between class, gender, race and body on three different levels: the level of social structures, the level of identity construction and the level of symbolic representation. Considering the theoretical relationship between the analysis of class and social inequality, the article also intends to understand and explain how these different levels of analysis are interrelated, how the linkage between social categories and levels of social reality have to be methodologically reflected and how they can be made accessible in and through empirical research. © VS Verlag für Sozialwissenschaften 2011.

    Intersectionality as multi-level analysis: Dealing with social inequality
    (2011-01)
    Winker, Gabriele
    ;
    Degele, Nina
    The concept of intersectionality is on its way to becoming a new paradigm in gender studies. In its current version, it denominates reciprocities between gender, race and class. However, it also allows for the integration of other socially defined categories, such as sexuality, nationality or age. On the other hand, it is widely left unclear as to which level these reciprocal effects apply: the level of social structures, the level of constructions of identity or the level of symbolic representations. This article advocates an intersectional multi-level analysis which takes into account reciprocal effects between the various levels. This approach includes an analytical grasp of and methodical reflection on these reciprocal effects as well as making them empirically accessible.

    Intersektionalität als Mehrebenenanalyse
    (2007)
    Degele, Nina
    ;
    Winker, Gabriele
    Das Konzept der Intersektionalität auf dem besten Weg, zu einem neuen Paradigma in den Gender und Queer Studies zu avancieren. Zwar sind in der Fassung, wie es seit einigen Jahren in die deutschsprachige Diskussion sickert, vor allem Wechselwirkungen zwischen den ungleichheitsgenerierenden Kategorien Geschlecht, Klasse und Rasse gemeint; Kategorien wie Sexualität, Alter, (Dis)Ability, Religion oder Nationalität sind aber prinzipiell integrierbar. Ziel ist dabei die umfassendere theoretische und vor allem empirische Analyse, welche Bedeutung verschiedene Differenzkategorien bei Phänomenen und Prozessen unterschiedlichster Art haben. Zur Konkretisierung dieses bislang nur rudimentär ausgearbeiteten Theorieansatzes schlagen wir mit unserem Konzept der Intersektionalität als Mehrebenenanalyse Erweiterungen, Differenzierungen und Präzisierungen in verschiedenerlei Hinsicht vor.
