Katherine Nastovski serves as an Assistant Professor in the Work and Labour Studies Program at York University’s Department of Social Science, Faculty of Liberal Arts & Professional Studies. With a background as a union activist, her research centers on anti-racist Marxist feminist critiques within global labour studies, emphasizing struggles for workers’ justice, transnational solidarity, and the intersections of colonialism, imperialism, and racism in union organizing.
- Research Interests: Labour transnationalism, critical race theory in trade unions, historical and contemporary anti-apartheid campaigns, and dialectical materialist approaches to solidarity.
- Key Contributions: Her work challenges the efficacy of institutions like the ILO, reframes labour solidarity beyond imperialist frameworks, and examines transformative practices in Canadian and international union movements.
Recent publications include analyses of Canadian labor responses to apartheid systems and theoretical advancements in transnational solidarity. She is currently finalizing a book manuscript, Transnational Horizons: Workers in Canada Enter the Global Sphere (University of Toronto Press), exploring the global dimensions of Canadian labor activism.
