Bio
Janna Klostermann is a PhD Candidate in Carleton’s Department of Sociology and Anthropology.
Her doctoral research examines meanings and practices of ‘care work’ through the life histories of care providers, who reached their limits and stepped back from care or family responsibilities in Ontario. The project mobilizes feminist theories and methods to investigate tensions in care work, while contributing to critical thought on the intersections of care work and aging.
Her scholarly work has appeared or is forthcoming in the Canadian Journal of Discourse and Writing (2017), the Canadian Review of Sociology (in press), Culture and Organization (2019), Ethnography and Education (2018), Literacy and Numeracy Studies (2016), Reading Sociology: Canadian Perspectives (2017), Studies in Social Justice (in press), Women’s Health Advocacy: Rhetorical Ingenuity for the 21st Century (2019).
