Tribute to Joan Acker (1924–2016): Views from ‘the South’

Judith K. Pringle

Gender, Work and Organization, 2019, vol. 26, issue 12, 1702-1704

Abstract: This short personal piece provides reflections on the contribution of Joan Acker's theorising and insights for gendered organization scholars working in New Zealand. We have positive recollections of Joan Acker the person, as well as her sharp and thoughtful analyses of gendered inequalities. Her contributions moved beyond gender as intersectionality influenced her later works. Her thoughts on positive organizational change are considered and finally, we offer quotes that will endure.
