Rethinking Gender, Work and Organization
Keele University
27-29 June 2001
As a central theme in social science research in the field of work and
organization, 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
organization of gender and the gendering of organizations. 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 Organization Conference 2001 provides an
international
forum for debate and analysis of the following issues, in relation to
gender studies:
Feminist theory, sexualities in organization, men and masculinities,
gendered identity and subjectivity, power and resistance, sexualities in
organization, home working, gender and new technologies, alternative
organization, 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, 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.
