Sheds light on how women's labour was shaped by US capital in the northeast region of Mexico and how women's labour activism simultaneously shaped the nature of foreign investment and relations between Mexicans and Americans. As SoniaHernández reveals, women labourers were expected to maintain their "proper” place in society, and work environments were in fact gendered and class-based. Yet, these notions of class and gender were frequently challenged as women sought to improve their livelihoods by using everyday forms of negotiation.
