DESCRIPTION:Join us to celebrate the publication of Dr Nihan Akyelken's ne
 w book 'Women\, Work and Mobility' (Routledge\, 2024). The event will incl
 ude reflections from Dr Valentina Montoya Robledo (TSU\, Oxford)\, Dr Isab
 el Ruiz (HMC\, Oxford) and Dr Debbie Hopkins\, (ContEd & SoGE\, Oxford)\, 
 a response from the book's author\, and an opportunity to discuss the book
 ’s themes. The event will be chaired by Dr Jennie Middleton (TSU\, Oxfor
 d).\n\n\n\nIn ‘Women\, Work and Mobilities’\, Dr Akyelken examines the
  wider implications of how workers move within and across cities and regio
 ns to reach economic opportunities\, with a specific focus on women in urb
 an and regional contexts in Turkey. Through her writing\, Dr Akyelken reve
 als specificities and generalisations about mobility patterns of women in 
 low-income households/low-paid jobs and how these change in the existence 
 of urban and regional interventions\, such as industrial zoning\, urban tr
 ansformations and mobility restrictions. Through this\, she presents new t
 heorisations of work and mobility through labour agency\, showing how mobi
 lity changes the recruitment and use of labour under state interventions.\
