Oral history interview with Karen Coates
No full textTranscript, 33 pp.Karen Coates grew up in rural northwest Washington state, then graduated from Mills College (Oakland CA) with a degree in mathematics. She describes lessons learned in running FORTRAN programs at nearby Cal State Hayward, a summer internship at IBM, and then work with UC Berkeley’s Laura Gould that led to computer-science teaching at Mills and at Stanford University. Continuing her computer science education at Northwestern University, she met many Bell Labs women working there on master’s degrees and applied herself for a job at Bell Labs. She began work at Bell Labs Naperville in 1974 as a Member of Technical Staff assigned to 4ESS then moved to the Computation Center and worked on the Bell Laboratories Network, an early packet-switched network. She describes working at Bell’s Murray Hill (NJ) facility with Bjarne Stroustrop, during the time he developed “C with Classes” which evolved into C++. Returning to Naperville/Indian Hills, she took up managerial positions in the networking project and then in switching-system applied research. She relates her experiences with the 1970s women’s movement and the supportive network of women colleagues. She left Bells Labs in 1985 and moved to California, where she worked for a subsidiary of TRW on military intelligence systems; a communications company called Octel; a startup venture; and a health-care enterprise celled Omnicell. She describes subtle transformations in gender discrimination in the 1980s and in Silicon Valley.

Introduction : Gender and culture in Japan today
No full textThis introduction presents an overview of the key concepts discussed in the subsequent chapters of this book. The book analyses the contours of the field. The collection features both new work and updated accounts of classic scholarship, providing a go-to reference work for contemporary scholarship on gender in Japanese culture. The book focuses on various disciplinary and subdisciplinary approaches to gender in Japanese culture, including approaches from premodern and modern history, cultural studies, sociology, anthropology, queer theory, and linguistics. It aims to assess the work-life balance that determines much of family life in contemporary Japan, and demonstrates the uneasy pull between the demands of the public and private spheres experienced by many working people. The book presents a series of close readings of text and genre from the perspective of gender and its related issues. It also demonstrates how textual analysis sensitive to gender and its operations can reveal nuance and complexity in a variety of areas of study

Gender in digital technologies and cultures
No full textDigital technology affords new modes of engaging with gender, often in ways that challenge extant inequalities through simulation and transformation. Yet digital iterations of gender do not make a radical break with pre-existing lived experiences and practices and can even support the development of conservative or exclusionary gender ideologies rather than proliferation of difference. Furthermore, the major research activity around Japanese digital cultures to date has tended to cleave to disciplinary boundaries without a great degree of cross-reference, and so key approaches and definitions central to the study of digital technologies and cultures vary across different fields. This problem is exacerbated by the ubiquity of digital technologies in various aspects of Japanese life. This chapter brings together a diverse array of research on digital cultures in Japan in order to survey the fast-developing field and at the same time argue for drawing a wider definitional boundary around that field. The chapter concludes with a case study of later-life smartphone use and its gendered implications
