Abstract
The question of whether and why
women prefer self-employment to
wage-employment in dealing with
social space-work space interface
has been on the research radar for
some time. A careful scrutiny of research
depictions of women in selfemployment
points towards three
frames for a better understanding
of whether and why women choose
self-employment over wage employment
while engaging with social
space-workspace dilemmas - the
“pragmatic-accepting” (self-employment
as an arrangement at the
person level in tune with social
space-workspace ground realities),
the “organizational-managerial”
(self-employment as flight from insensate
managerialism), and the
“structural-contradictory” (selfemployment
as a fission triggered by
resentful distress and strident protest
against deeply embedded heedlessness)
