Gender, work, employment and society: feminist reflections on continuity and change

Linda McDowell

Work, Employment & Society, 2014, vol. 28, issue 5, 825-837

Abstract: At the conference to celebrate 25 years of publishing Work, Employment and Society, held at the British Library in 2012, I had the privilege of being asked to talk about feminist approaches to the changing nature of work and employment. Despite being something of an interloper – I am a geographer, not a sociologist – as a committed reader of the journal I was delighted to be invited. I was even more delighted when the organizers suggested that I turn my remarks into this comment.
