Pages : 276
Book Description
Excerpt from Women Workers of the Orient The Central Committee, following the program suggested by the Committee of Twenty-eight, presents this, its eighteenth volume, Women Workers of the Orient, While in some countries of the Orient there is as yet little suggestion of industrialism and its problems, with which we are so familiar, women have always had, in every land, their own heavy burdens, industrial and economic. Miss Burton has treated the subject broadly, rather than in a narrow and technical sense. She has shown in each chapter, but more especially in the last, the relation of missionaries to the oppressed and weary women of the East, such women as the Master taught in Judea and Galilee. This great company must look today to His representatives for His message which alone can bring full liberation and development. We are indebted to Miss Burton for a wealth of new material, the result of wide travel and research. She has given us a valuable text-book, which will supply the best possible outlines for programs and study classes.

Organizing Women Workers in the Informal Economy
Author: Naila Kabeer
Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing
ISBN: 1780324537
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 314
Book Description
Women as a group have often been divided by a number of intersecting inequalities: class, race, ethnicity, caste. As individuals - often isolated in reproductive or other home-based work - their weapons of resistance have tended to be restricted to the traditional weapons of the weak: hidden subversions and individualised struggles. Organizing Women Workers in the Informal Economy explores the emergence of an alternative repertoire among women working in the growing informal sectors of the global South: the weapons of organization and mobilization. This crucial book offers vibrant accounts of how women working as farm workers, sex workers, domestic workers, waste pickers, fisheries workers and migrant factory workers have organized for collective action. What gives these precarious workers the impetus and courage to take up these steps? What resources do they draw on in order to transcend their structurally disadvantaged position within the economy? And what continues to hamper their efforts to gain social recognition for themselves as women, as workers and as citizens? With first-hand accounts from authors closely involved in emerging organizations, this collection documents how women workers have come together to carve out new identities for themselves, define what matters to them, and develop collective strategies of resistance and struggle.
