Race, Gender and Work (Revised Edition): A Multi-Cultural Economic Histoy of Women in the United States Cover

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

With new data from the '90s, this classic feminist book explores the intersecting effects of race and gender on women from diverse backgrounds.

Book News Annotation:

An outgrowth of Boston's Economic Literacy Project of Women for Economic Justice, this new edition traces the economic and social histories of working women in America. The history documents the paid and unpaid work done by American Indian, Chicana, European American, African American, and Puerto Rican women from each group's cultural beginnings (pre-colonialization) to the most contemporary analysis of present day wage statistics. The appendices supply US census sources, occupational categories, and labor force participation rates from 1900 to 1980. Includes statistical tables.
