Shavlaeva, T. M. The Inactive

Abstract: The article casts light on the issues of gender-based division of labor in a Chechen traditional household which creates the basis for ethnic economy since there are no factories or plants there. Underlying a unique diligence of a woman, some researchers exaggerate the thesis about a ‘lazy and inactive’ man. In real life, it is the man who performed the most diffi cult tasks in a field, with a cattle and craft. If a woman interfered with the ‘male space’, it was understood as an underestimation of masculinity.


Keywords:

history, division of labor, male crafts, traditional household, masculinity, Chechnya, Chechen household, ethno economics, division of labor based on gender, female labor.
