GES 244 - Gendered Geographies of Work

Explores how a geographic understanding of gender, class and ethnicity can help explain the current restructuring of the global economy. Examines how gender, race, class and ethnicity divide the work force and how location and space shape and sustain such divisions from local to global scales. Evaluates competing explanations for why women and minorities hold jobs that differ distinctly from jobs held by other workers.
