CAMILLE ROBERT

I am a historian, a postdoctoral researcher at Concordia University and a lecturer at the University of Quebec at Montreal. My research focuses on the history of women, work, the state, public services, unionism and feminist movements in Quebec.

 

My first book, Toutes les femmes sont d'abord ménagères, was published in 2017 by Éditions Somme toute. I also co-edited, with Louise Toupin, the collective work Travail invisible. Portraits d'une lutte féministe inachevée, published in the fall of 2018 by Éditions du remue-ménage. My next book, entitled Éduquer, soigner, résister. Les travailleuses de l’éducation et de la santé face au tournant néolibéral de l’État québécois (1980-1990), will be published by Presses de l'Université de Montréal.

 

Keen to contribute to the dissemination of history, I am a member of the editorial committee of Histoire Engagée and I collaborate with several media outlets and organizations.
