Description
Summary:An obituary for Teresa Rosemary Healy, the feminist, labor scholar, activist, and musician who died on Dec 21, 2022, is presented. Of Irish descent, Healy was a young child when she immigrated from England with her parents and siblings to the small farming town of Tottenham, in Simcoe County, Ontario. She left home in her early twenties to attend York University, where she earned her Bachelor and Master of Arts degrees, both in political science. Her PhD dissertation, completed at Carleton University in 1999, became the foundation of her acclaimed book Gendered Struggles against Globalization in Mexico, which traces shifts in class and gender hierarchies in successive industrial models of development in 20th-century Mexico in the context of North American integration.
