The Organization of Exclusion: Institutionalization of Sex Inequality, Gendered Faculty Jobs and Gendered Knowledge in Organizational Theory and Research

Abstract

This paper discusses how institutionalized practices and structures contribute to sex inequality in universities, gendered definitions of faculty jobs and gendered limitations to knowledge in the field of organizational studies. This analysis shows why changing the numbers of women in academia (the `add women and stir' solution) is not likely to alter sex inequality in the organizational studies field unless major changes are made to the ways faculty jobs are structured and unless the assumption that the content of knowledge in our field is challenged.
