Marion Werner

My research is located at the nexus of critical development studies, feminist theory, and political economy with a focus on Latin America and the Caribbean. I bring these theoretical perspectives to my work on the economic restructuring of export industries, the gender and racial politics of labor, and, more recently, agro-food systems and development policy.
