The Sexuality of Organization

A critical text on the pervasiveness and power of sexuality in the ongoing production and reproduction of organizations and organizational life. The 12 contributors, researchers in Australia, Canada, the UK and the USA, present the latest empirical evidence and theoretical thinking. This exciting, critical text explores the pervasiveness of sexuality in organizations, and the interrelations of sexuality and power in the ongoing production and reproduction of organizational life. Clearly and accessibly, the authors show various ways in which the very processes of organization reflect power relations suffused with dominant forms of sexuality. Specific subjects addressed include sexuality and the labour process, sexual harassment, men′s sexuality, lesbians in organizations, and the experiences of women managers and secretaries.
