SUMMARY:Gender, Intersectionality, and Global Restructuring: New Sightings, Sites and Resistances?
DESCRIPTION:Is the concept “global restructuring” still useful to those who work to challenge and change inequalities? Just over 20 years ago, Marianne H. Marchand and Anne Sisson Runyan analyzed globalization through a feminist intersectional lens in their volume, Gender and Global Restructuring: Sightings, Sites and Resistances.  Using the concept of global restructuring, they highlighted the differential impacts, speeds, directions, connectivities, and power constellations that mainstream literature on neoliberal globalization ignored. With the imminent publication of the 3rd edition (2024), it is an opportune moment for critical reflection and interpretation about the political, economic, social, and cultural transformations that have occurred in the last several decades.



Convened by the authors of this volume, this workshop will explore whether and how the original concept of “global restructuring” can be useful in understanding such transformations, the benefits and challenges implicit to using a feminist intersectional lens in this research area, and the necessity to trace the connections and disjunctures between the everyday realities of people in the global Souths and Norths in all their complexity.
