Marchand is professor of international relations at the University of the Americas, Puebla, Mexico, where she also coordinates the Ph.D. program in International Relations.  She is a member of the National System of Researchers (SNI). Her research demonstrates a great concern with the politics of change and (global) restructuring. In her work, Marchand looks to feminist and postcolonial theory and engages in critical explorations of the narratives and practices of development, globalization and regionalization\/regionalism. She addresses the politics of change and how global restructuring often leads to increased marginalization and social exclusion. These concerns are reflected in some of her books: Femininsm\/Postmodernism\/Development (with J. L. Parpart; Routledge, 1995); and Gender and Global Restructuring (with Anne Sisson Runyan; Routledge, 2000). \n\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EIn addition, Dr. Marchand has been the co-editor of the Ripe Series in Global Political Economy (Routledge) and is currently the co-editor of the Gender in a Global\/Local World series with Ashgate.
