In this thesis Acker's framework is explored through analysis of the gendered processes at work over time in a single company---Pan American Airways. Critical discourse analysis was used to interrogate archival data during the 1950s and then again in the 1970s and 1980s. It was discovered that dominant discourses, at each point in time, served as organizing principles which informed the gendering processes within the organization. Although the dominant discourses changed between the two time periods, as did the manifestations of the gendering processes, it can be argued that the genderedness of the organization did not. Joan Acker's gendering processes framework presented particul...

It is anticipated that a thorough understanding of these processes will be instrumental in effecting change.

Specifically, to extend the work of Erkhut (2002); Bissonette, Runte, Lowe, Mullen, and Marshall (2001); and Grandy, Kelley, and O’Connell, (2000) which comprise the most recent work on Canadian management research output. We will also demonstrate the challenges associated with the assumptions made in studies of these types and the concomitant challenges this poses for interpretation and measurement.

Of interest is the ‘making of meaning’ in terms of how arguments in support of the organizational benefits of diversity management are communicated and thus legitimized. Although this chapter is dedicated to the specifics of the business case for diversity, a brief discussion of its origins within the evolution of the broader discourse of diversity management is included. Asking a series of fundamental questions, this chapter shows it is important to consider both the intended and unintended consequences of the reliance of the business case.
