Why did working-class women become the central labour force on
assembly lines in the new consumer goods' industries of the
inter-war period? What was the long-term significance of this for
the pattern of women's work, both in paid employment and in the
home? Originally published in 1990, Women Assemble fills a major
gap in the history of women and work, and develops a theory of
women's class relations, and of course gender and class more
generally, by means of an original case-study. Taken from a wide
variety of sources, it uses a multidisciplinary approach and is
brought to life by interviews with people who worked in
assembly-line industries during the inter-war period. This
extremely readable study is important to feminists, historians, and
sociologists, as well as to all those concerned with issues of
gender, class, and the labour process.
