Gendered Spaces Of Industrial Restructuring In Resource Peripheries: The Case Of The Corner Brook Region, Newfoundland

Abstract

Although industrial restructuring in a resource region might appear at first glance to impact mainly on the predominantly male labour force, in practice it often results in a broader range of economic and social changes as women expand and intensify their entrepreneurial activities as home‐based paid workers, and as shifts occur in gender divisions of waged and unwaged labour. The Corner Brook region represents an example of these transformative processes of change. Since restructuring in resource regions occurs in situ, it is necessarily contingent on local place‐based geographies and histories, but its impact has profound implications for gender identity and social relations in economically marginalised regions.
