520 _aThis book explores the relationship between gender inequality and the energy business, examining how gender relates to the process of producing energy, the management of energy companies, and the consumption of energy in the public and private sphere. Drawing on a wide range of examples, from Africa, South Asia, Latin America and Europe, it examines how clean energy targets can transform the experience of women in the workplace, creating new opportunities and challenges. This book knits together a variety of voices probing continuing and emerging gender inequality in energy, from a number of perspectives, geography, energy dimensions, environment, socio-political and economic contexts. Its multidimensional approach provides a textured analysis of women’s experiences in the energy landscape, and proffers solutions for addressing the universality, yet contextually disparate impacts, of patriarchy and its intersections with another strands of inequality. It will be of great interest to practitioners and academics working on energy capitalism, energy production, consumption, public policy and gender studies. Natalia Rocha Lawton is an Assistant Professor in Human Resource Management and Organisational Behaviour at Coventry University, UK. Her research focuses on the social implications of economic deregulation of the energy sector on employment relations, gender and diversity. Cynthia Forson is Reader in Human Resource Management and Director of External Engagement in West Africa at Lancaster University, UK, and based in Ghana. Her research focuses on gender inequality in the labour market and organisations and its intersection with other strands of inequality.
