Gender and Work: A Global Survey from 1750 to WWII
Affiliation
We all experience work as gendered beings, in a world structured by racial capitalism and the legacy of imperialism. Yet the mainstream historical narratives of economy and labour still resist a serious engagement with gender. This course will provide you with alternative (feminist) conceptual frameworks within which to study the past and present issues of labour, production, value, cultures of work, inequality, and skill.
