› Find signed collectible books: 'Computer-Aided Manufacturing and Women's Employment: The Clothing Industry in Four EC Countries'Book summary:Drawing on the experiences of four major EC countries, this book documents the way computer technology has changed the pattern of women's work in the manufacturing sector. The sixteen contributors are leading authorities on the subject and analyse how technology has transformed employment in the clothing industry, which is still the major employer of female blue-collar workers in the EC. The contributors assess the aspects of computerisation that particularly affect women's employment opportuni- ties: flexible hours, flexible work locations and flexible specialisation. The book also contains evaluations of post-Fordism and human-centred technology, two leading issues in the debate about the applications of artificial intelligence and computer-aided technology. These essays highlight a growing polarisation in the job market and suggest training schemes which can equip women for technical and managerial employment. This is a pioneering work; so far, most of the literature on women and computerisation has focussed on office automation and data processing. Computer-aided Manufacturing and Women's Employment makes an important contribution to the fields of technology, employment, women's work, business management and trade union studies. [via]

Gender And the Digital Economy: Perspectives from the Developing Worldby Cecilia Ng, Swasti MitterISBN 0761934103 (0-7619-3410-3)
Hardcover, Sage Pubns

› Find signed collectible books: 'Gender And the Digital Economy: Perspectives from the Developing World'Book summary:In the discourse on information and communications technologies (ICTs), the focus has been on the, sometimes negative, relocation of jobs from the developed world. This book focuses, instead, on the positive aspects of the introduction of ICTs and shows how they can empower women and make a difference in today's uneven development process. It illustrates, with case studies from Argentina, Morocco, India, Malaysia and the Philippines, how economic empowerment can change the position of women within their families and workplaces.
This book shows how to:
- distinguish between liberal and neo-liberal theoretical paradigms while analyzing `informational capitalism';
- interrogate the silence and ambiguity among scholars and practitioners regarding gender equality, ICTs and human development;
- avoid imposing canons of Western feminism in assessing the benefits of e-trade in societies where social norms are different; and
- incorporate feminist principles of inclusion, user-developer interaction and transparency while designing ICT initiatives.
Gender and the Digital Economy is an excellent resource for academic researchers, NGOs and industry analysists in the field of international development communication. [via]
