CHSTU 435 - Latinas and Labor in the Neoliberal Age<https://aes.washington.edu/courses/2022/spring/chstu/435/a>
SLN: 12395
T TH 8:30-10:20
Instructor: Alina R. Méndez<https://aes.washington.edu/people/alina-r-mendez>
5 Credits  I&S / DIV

This course examines the social, political, and economic forces shaping the lives of Latina workers under neoliberalism. Decades of deindustrialization and a concomitant expansion of the service industry in the US have augmented the need for cheap, so-called "unskilled" labor. Immigrant Latinas have helped to fill these labor needs, often working in gendered occupations and in the informal economy, which leaves them vulnerable to exploitation. Despite their marginalized status, immigrant Latinas take part in a long spectrum of resistance that ranges from quotidian assertions of human dignity to transnational political organizing.
