Lecture: At the Uncomfortable Frontier of Feminism and Capitalism: Gender and Corporate Real Estate Development in Britain<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Corporate Real Estate has long been associated with a particularly patriarchal form of capitalism. High-rise towers, financial citadels and plush board rooms have come to symbolize the architectural manifestation of toxic masculinity, underpinned by aggressive speculative development. Yet women have also worked in, and been responsible for the development of, such spaces for decades. This lecture looks at the frictions and fictions at the encounter of gender and commercial real estate, exploring the history of women in the production and use of office buildings in Britain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Den Vortrag wird Thomas in englischer Sprache halten.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
