Here you find the abstract, the authors biography and the subjects discussed in a book from Daniels, H., Edwards, A., Engeström, Y.ö, Gallagher, T., Ludvigsen. You have probably seen this book already. But for those who haven't: take a look and read the abstract. I guess it is a very important book when it comes to "activity theory" and "learning across boundaries". You can find it in the Bibliotheque à Walferdange. Have fun :)

This a report on a very interesting conference held in May 2004 at the Asian Institute of Technology (AIT) Conference in Bangkok, Thailand. Some keywords for those who might be interested: gender, technology and development. The report provides an interesting insight into several studies on this field. For instance, one of the papers discussed emphasizes the role of vocational training for migrant women regarding their negotiations with the workmarket. One of the aspects discussed: "how do young [migrant] North American women perceive and understand, hear and listen, to the voices of their sisters [native women] across culture, class, status, skin, and language?" It is definitely an interesting issue, where crossing boundaries is a factor of development.
