'Rethinking Gender, Work and Organization'
Gender, Work and Organization Conference
An international interdisciplinary conference at Keele University,
Staffordshire, England
27-29th June 2001
As a central theme in social science research in the field of work and
organisation, the study of gender has achieved contemporary significance
beyond the confines of early discussions of women at work. Launched in
1994, Gender, Work and Organization was the first journal to provide an
arena dedicated to debate and analysis of gender relations, the
organisation of gender and the gendering of organisations. The forthcoming
conference consolidates our knowledge and theorising and brings together
scholars concerned to further advance theory, research and practice of
these issues into the 21st century.
The Gender, Work and Organisation Conference 2001 provides an international
forum for debate and analysis of the following issues, in relation to
gender studies:
Feminist theory, sexualities in organisation, men and masculinities,
gendered identity and subjectivity, power and resistance, sexualities in
organisation, home working, gender and new technologies, alternative
organisation, new managerialism, harassment and discrimination, unequal
pay, race and ethnicity, women and men in management, and human resource
management.
The Conference will be held at Keele University, Staffordshire, in Central
England, the UK's largest integrated campus university. The University
occupies a 617 acre campus site with Grade II registration by English
Heritage and has good road and rail access. Many architectural and
landscape features dating from the 19th century are of regional
significance. International travellers are served by Manchester and
Birmingham airports. On campus accommodation caters for up to 100,000
visitors per year in day and residential conferences.
Abstracts of approximately 750 words (excluding any references) are invited
by 30 November 2000. Prospective contributions will be independently
refereed. New and young scholars with 'work in progress' papers are
