SUMMARY:Politics of Gender in Work and Innovation in India and China
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a discussion of “Politics of Gender in Work and Innovation in India and China.”  \n\n\n\nDrawing on ethnographic research of design practices in post-liberalization India\, Prof. Lilly Irani traces how designers target everyday acts of social reproduction as sites of intervention and valorization through design intervention. She makes the case with stories of water cooling\, contrasting devalued water cooling practices characterized as jugaad or workaround with proper\, branded products recognizable as innovation. These contrasting categories act as signposts to see how design practices proposed as participatory and inclusive can still reproduce class\, caste\, and gender hierarchies in contemporary India. She draws from Chasing Innovation: Making Entrepreneurial Citizens in Modern India (Princeton University Press\, 2019). Prof. Yige Dong draws on a case study of Zhengzhou\, a city located in China’s heartland that has transformed from a major textile mill town in the socialist period to the world largest iPhone manufacturing center in the last decade. Extending the analytical focus from the factory shop floor to the space of social reproduction\, this talk discusses how dynamics in the realm of gender and care work has constituted the processes of political economy and shaped the outcomes of China’s industrial development.  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSPEAKERS\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLilly IraniAssociate ProfessorCommunication\, Science Studies\, Computer Science\, Critical Gender Studies\, Design LabUNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA SAN DIEGO  \n\n\n\nLilly Irani is an Associate Professor of Communication & Science Studies at University of California\, San Diego.
