Valerie Burton/Position: Associate Professor in the Department of History at Memorial University of Newfoundland in Canada and Coordinator of the Master in Women’s Studies Program/Research Interests: ports, maritime and in-port labour in Britain from the mid-eighteenth to mid-twentieth century. This accounts for an interest in the history of feminism since I study the empirical research, writings and activism of past feminists around the domestic and formal economy of port and shipping families (Eleanor Rathbone, for example, produced a study of seafaring families in 1910). As an economic historian I take this interest into feminist debates on household labour of the 1960s and 70s and still fight a corner for the theory and practice of historical materialism/Email: vburton@mun.ca
