Intersectionality and Discrimination

Meer over het boek

The book explores wage discrimination in the U.S. labor market through the lens of intersectionality, a term coined by Kimberlé Crenshaw in 1989. It highlights how overlapping social categorizations—such as disability, gender identity, race, and socioeconomic class—contribute to systemic inequality. By applying an intersectional framework, the author investigates the complexities of wage disparities and the broader implications for social justice and equal rights in the context of increasing societal awareness of these issues.
