Gender, Space and City Bankers
Gendered processes of globalisation, transnationalisation and urbanisation are increasing local and global inequalities and widening the gap between the rich and the poor. The global finance industry plays a key role in these processes, directing its operations from local command points in global cities such as London. Drawing on empirical data collected after the 2008 financial crisis in depth interviews with male City of London bankers who are also fathers, in depth interviews with the bankers wives, observational data of work and family spaces, and banks promotional online material this book explores the day-to-day individual and institutional social practices of wealthy City bankers and banks. The books analysis offers insight into how the spaces of work and home are integrally linked in ways that mutually shape, support and sustain the gendered dominance of the industry and its highly paid workers.
This book will appeal to postgraduate students, researchers and academics interested in the fields of gender studies, critical studies of men and masculinities, urban and metropolitan studies, sociology, studies of globalisation and transnationalisation, anthropology, cultural studies and business management. It will also be interesting for those concerned about the role of the finance industry and neoliberal capitalist ideologies, values and practices in ever-widening local and global inequalities.
Dr Helen Longlands is a lecturer in Education and International Development at UCL Institute of Education, University College London. Her research interests are interdisciplinary and centre on issues relating to gender, inequalities and social justice, particularly men, masculinities and transnational relationships and structures of power.
Routledge Advances in Feminist Studies and Intersectionality
Routledge Advances in Feminist Studies and Intersectionality is committed to the development of new feminist and pro-feminist perspectives on changing gender relations, with special attention to:
- Intersections between gender and power differentials based on age, class, dis/abilities, ethnicity, nationality, racialisation, sexuality, violence and other social divisions.
- Intersections of societal dimensions and processes of continuity and change: culture, economy, generativity, polity, sexuality, science and technology;
- Embodiment: Intersections of discourse and materiality, and of sex and gender.
- Transdisciplinarity: intersections of humanities, social sciences, medical, technical and natural sciences.
- Intersections of different branches of feminist theorising, including: historical materialist feminisms, postcolonial and anti-racist feminisms, radical feminisms, sexual difference feminisms, queer feminisms, cyber feminisms, post-human feminisms, critical studies on men and masculinities.
- A critical analysis of the travelling of ideas, theories and concepts.
- A politics of location, reflexivity and transnational contextualising that reflects the basis of the Series framed within European diversity and transnational power relations.

For his love, kindness and compassion
A number of institutions and individuals have helped me bring this book to fruition, and I am very grateful for their support, advice and kindness along the way.
My gratitude goes particularly to the ESRC for funding my initial research study, and to the Library of Congress in association with the AHRC/ESRC for awarding me a scholarship to conduct research at the Kluge Academic Center, Library of Congress, Washington, DC, which was a valuable and enriching experience. I am also enormously grateful for the opportunity I was given to be part of the inspiring, collaborative and hugely supportive GEXcel (Joint University Centre of Gender Excellence) fellowship programme, Research Theme 9 on Gendered Sexualed Transnationalisations, Deconstructing the Dominant: Transforming Men, Centres and Knowledge/Policy/Practice, at Linkping University, Sweden, funded by the Swedish Research Council. And I am incredibly thankful to Emily Briggs and Elena Chiu at Routledge/Taylor & Francis for working so considerately with me in the production of this book, as well as the Series Editors Jeff Hearn and Nina Lykke.
In addition, I am very grateful for all the support from and discussions with colleagues, students and friends at UCL Institute of Education that helped me develop, question, revisit, extend and clarify my thinking. I would particularly like to thank Elaine Unterhalter, Amy North, Jon Swain, Jenny Parkes, Ivette Hernandez Santibaez, Rosie Peppin Vaughan, Jo Heslop, Alexandra Lewis, Miriam David and my other colleagues at the UCL Centre for Education and International Development. I have been enormously fortunate to present and discuss my work in seminars and at conferences in different parts of the world, and I offer special thanks to Richard Collier, Winnie Poster, Sebastin Madrid, Raewyn Connell and Anika Thym for their insightful and encouraging comments on my research.
