Abstract: | This article engages in two broad tasks. First, it articulates the basic premises of a "critical communicology of gender and work", suggesting a communication- oriented model for examining the relationships among gender, discourse, organizing, and power. Second, the article demonstrates the heuristic value of this model through an empirical analysis of professional airline pilot identities. Drawing on both archival and interview data, the analysis shows how these identities are far from fixed and unitary, but are actually complex discursive constructions produced by myriad historical, cultural, political, and economic forces. |
