| Globalization has created a shift away from subsistence to forms of wage labor at the local scale which has differentially impacted women in natural resource-dependent communities. As wage labor draws women away from subsistence and into large-scale industries, women’s well-being, livelihoods, and previously defined roles also change. I documented how women’s well-being in Chile’s Lakes Region is impacted by global change. Through integrating ethnography, participant observation, and photography, I have produced a visual and narrative story of women’s subjective well-being that illuminates not only how their livelihoods, social relations, and work are affected by the interaction between globalization and the local culture, but also the feminist perspectives and sustainable actions they take as a result. |
