Abstract

In this paper I will consider several ditt'erent types of ethnitication processes related to the social organization of people in multicultural workplaces.l By ethnification process I mean a series of actions which either directly or indirectly make an ethnic characterization of some individual or group a normatively and/or conventionally 'proper' description.2 Most of the social organizing I will be talking about will be the organization of face-to-face communication within various social activities. My goal here is to show how ethnicity, as one of many possible determinants of an identity, is constituted in this Upe of communication. Other types of social organizing I dealwith, e.g. job assignments, recruitment, production processes I have no direct communicative data from; rather the data I have is of people telling us how these things are carried out. What I take ethnicity to mean is, hopefully, what the people I investigate mean by it. Thus I also hope to show some aspects and uses of ethnicity as a member's concept, the type of work it does and when, how, and why it is used.
