Gender and Technology at Work: From Workplace Studies to Social Justice in Design
Balka, Ellen (Simon Fraser University, British Columbia)
This book traces the gendering of women's work and technology from its historical roots in factories, offices, IT companies, and hospitals to contemporary workplaces including platform- and AI-based work. It adopts a feminist/intersectional perspective on design with a focus on norm-critical, social justice-oriented, and decolonizing approaches.
