Título : Dirty Work and Stigma: Caretakers of Death in Cemeteries
Palabras clave : Multidisciplinarias (Ciencias Sociales);Identity;ideologies;cemeteries;dirty work
Editorial : Universidad de los Andes
Descripción : "This article uses the category dirty work in the analysis of the identity of morticians and funeral directors, as well as it identifies techniques and practices to deal with professional stigma. The article analyzes the role of the types of stains in the nature of these workers’ relationships with their dirty job, and the influence of context elements. This research, which integrates quantitative and qualitative methods, uses scales pertaining to this job and semi-structured interviews. It is concluded that the presence of moral stains in funeral directors brings the group together more solidly, and that elements such as class and race inhabit in the social construction of these discredited jobs and operate in the production of stained identities."
