Lukijan mielipide | Maahanmuuttajanaisten työn ja yrittäjyyden tutkimus on tärkeää
Kauneusalan työstä, sen tekijöistä ja heidän suhteistaan asiakkaisiin tarvitaan tietoa.
Kiitokset ahkerille kollegoille, jotka jaksavat vastata näihin kohuihin, kesälläkin. Maahanmuuttoon/feminismiin/rasismiin liittyvää tutkimusta on riepoteltu vuosia. Nyt kritisoidaan myös kansainvälisyyttä. Tiede on kuitenkin lähtökohtaisesti kansainvälistä, ja aikamme keskeiset haasteet globaaleja.
