While the notion of PF has been extensively investigated in cultural and media studies, it has yet to emerge within organization studies - remaining marginal to understandings of work-based experiences and subjectivities. Understanding PF as a discursive cultural context not only draws on an established epistemological orientation to organizations as discursively constructed and reproduced but allows us to highlight how PF may underpin and be underpinned by other discursive regimes
This book, as the first in the field, draws on key international authors to explore: the contextual 'backdrop' of PF and its links with neo-liberalism, transnational feminism and other hegemonic discourses; the different ways in which this backdrop has infiltrated organizational values and practice through the primacy attached to choice, merit and individual agency as well as through the widespread perception that gender disadvantage has been 'solved'; and the implications for organizational subjectivity and for how inequality is experienced and perceived.  aFeminismzNigeria  aGender vEquality  aKelan, Elisabeth K.  aSimpson, Ruth  aBenschop, Yvonne  aLewis, Patricia  cRB2ddc  00104071aNASSDOCbNASSDOCd2018-03-23eOPi2018-02-28l0oRR 302.35082 POS-p49772r2019-04-18 00:00:00w2019-04-18yRB
