Reid, Lori Lynn. "Race, gender, and the labor market: Black and white women's employment." Diss., The University of Arizona, 1997. http://hdl.handle.net/10150/282540.

Abstract:
Historically, black women's employment levels have exceeded those for white women. However, looking only at young cohorts of women, the employment levels of black and white women were equal by 1969, and by 1991 white women's employment greatly exceeded black women's employment. If this continues to be true for successive new cohorts, it suggests that, overall, white women will soon be working at significantly higher rates than black women for the first time in history. Identifying the determinants of women's employment today becomes an important issue not only for explaining the factors that a

Abstract:
The subject constructed by and for labour law---the "worker"---is bodiless, sexless, genderless, and male. This thesis investigates how and why this construction occurs both through a discussion of general theoretical issues surrounding the way law constructs its subjects, and through a specific case study. The case study considers a set of sexual harassment cases decided in the "mainstream" unfair dismissal jurisdiction. As a site of women's overt presence in the labour market, these cases are disruptive to settled constructions of "the worker", particularly because they connect the sexuality

This thesis examines wage differentials between male and female faculty salaries at Western Kentucky University.

A large portion of the wage gap between men and women is explained through differences in the personal and job characteristics. A portion of the wage gap remains unexplained, however, the probability of discrimination playing a substantial role in salary is very small.
