Product Information
This book examines the interaction between multinationals and women in UK, Ireland, France and Germany, looking at inward investment by US and Japanese multinationals, as well as outward investment by European multinationals. It attempts to show how multinationals perpetuate an unequal division of labour by gender in which women production workers are merely nimble fingers . It discusses whether multinationals are exporting women's jobs from Europe in an international search for cheap labour; and it looks at how women have reacted to both the creation and destruction of employment by multinationals.Product Identifiers
