Description |
While Boucher points out the marginalization of women that occurs through the construction of the "public fetus," Bavington, Grzetic and Neis discuss the marginalization of women in the narratives (and practices) of the East Coast fisheries. They examine contemporary understandings of the devastation of the fisheries wrought by technological practices, but ask us to look beyond conventional knowledge about the impact of technology and industrialization to examine how gender, class, and power asymmetries inform knowledge systems, management, access, and control within fisheries. Bavington et al place the decline of the fisheries within a feminist political economy framework, arguing that this framework helps us to theorize agency in human and non-human nature.
