Opis

Since the early 1980s there has been a surge of interest in both issues of gender and sexuality in work and organizational life, and in the founding and running of co-operatives and collectives. Since hierarchy rests on divisions which are in part gendered and sexualized, and co-operatives (for the most part) operate with flat or non-hierarchical structures, they could be seen as places where gender and sexuality make little difference to the experiences of workers.
