99: Gendering in Organizations -- Joan Acker (Part 2)

47 min • 21 mars 2023
We conclude our discussion of Joan Acker’s article “Hierarchies, Jobs, Bodies: A Theory of Gendered Organizations,” from 1990 and bring the ideas of feminist theories of organization to contemporary times. From economic difficulties to the effects of the pandemic, workers are increasingly having to balance work with the need to provide care to their families, but global competitive pressures are causing companies to pursue even greater efficiencies. How do Acker’s ideas help us navigate these challenging times?
