Taking Up Space by Siham Bouamer

The contributors to Taking Up Space focus on representations of womens labour in cultural production (literature, cinema and television, journalism, bande dessinee). The chapters draw on a wide range of work experiences, from salaried work in academic, artistic, corporate and working-class worlds to unpaid (reproductive, domestic) labour, illegal activities and activism.

This book will mainly be of interest to an academic audience, for scholarly studies and as instructional material. As the first edited volume on the representations in various cultural productions of women at work in contemporary France, it will be particularly useful to scholars writing and teaching on the question of gender and labour in post-68 France.
