Presenting a paper derived from my new book project Women of the Trade.

The Faculty Seminar series was created by IIS co-directors Susan Hyde and Daniel Sargent to promote engagement and forge connections of UC Berkeley faculty across the academic disciplines. Over monthly lunchtime presentations, faculty participants get the opportunity to learn from each other across the silos of discipline and field, and engage in informative conversations that spark connections and expand a shared understanding of various research agendas. As such, the IIS Seminar forum is meant to help to knit together international studies as an interdisciplinary domain at UC Berkeley.
