Capitalist Family Values: Gender, Work, and Corporate Culture at Boeing is a comprehensive examination of the intersection of gender, work, and corporate culture within the context of one of America’s largest and most influential companies. The book delves into the ways in which Boeing’s corporate culture shapes and is shaped by gender norms and expectations, particularly in relation to work-life balance and family dynamics.
Through a combination of in-depth interviews, case studies, and analysis of company policies and practices, the author explores how Boeing’s emphasis on traditional family values and gender roles impacts the experiences of its employees, particularly women. The book also examines the ways in which these dynamics play out in the broader context of the capitalist system, shedding light on the ways in which gender inequality is perpetuated and reinforced within corporate environments.
Capitalist Family Values offers a thought-provoking and insightful look at the complex interplay between gender, work, and corporate culture at one of America’s most iconic companies. It is a must-read for anyone interested in understanding the ways in which gender shapes our experiences in the workplace and society at large.
