Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Use dmy dates Шаблон:Infobox scholar Carolyn Louise Baylies (2 June 1947 – 1 November 2003),[1] was an American academic and activist. She was particularly active in the fields of health and sociology of the third world and international development, and especially on the gendered aspects of development. Baylies was particularly notable for her work on the ways in which the AIDS epidemic threatened existing social structures and food security, a connection which she was one of the first to make.

Early life

Baylies was born in Texas[2] and grew up in California.[1]

Education and career

After completing her undergraduate degree in sociology at Berkeley in 1969,[2] she completed a doctorate on Zambian class relations at the University of Wisconsin–Madison, which was awarded in 1978. Following this she took a teaching post at the University of Zambia,[1] during which time she also undertook research on the trade union movement and labour policies.

In 1980 Baylies joined the school of economic studies at the University of Leeds as a research fellow studying the history of the Yorkshire Miners Association, a subject on which she published a book in 1993 entitled History of the Yorkshire Miners, 1881–1918. Her academic pursuits were valued by the University of Leeds, in 1983 she became a lecturer, in 1993, a senior lecturer, and in 2003, reader in the sociology of developing countries. Her work at the university also included her involvement in the founding of the Centre for Development Studies, of which she served as a director for two terms (1990–93, 1997–99).[2] Baylies also helped to shape the University of Leeds' interdisciplinary Master of Arts course in development studies, expanding the capacity for postgraduate research in the field.

Baylies was also involved in the Review of African Political Economy, which she helped to found. She served as a member of ROAPE's editorial working group for over 20 years.[2][3]

Baylies was married to fellow University of Leeds academic, Dr. Morris Szeftel, with whom she coauthored the book The Dynamics of the One-Party State in Zambia, published in 1984. Baylies and Szeftel had two children.

Baylies died from cancer on 1 November 2003.[1]
