Description
Labor by Andrew Herod offers a wide-ranging analysis of labor as a multifaceted and truly global resource. The book begins with an overview of migration streams and demographic trends that have shaped the planetary distribution of labor, before exploring how globalization and precarious work are impacting working people's lives in both traditional and modern employment sectors. Herod examines the ways in which workers are taking action to improve their lives, including forming trade unions and other labor organizations, occupying factories, and establishing anti-sweatshop campaigns. This book provides valuable insights into the state of labor in today's global economy, making it a useful resource for anyone interested in understanding this critical issue. By exploring the complexities of labor and its impact on individuals and societies, Herod offers a nuanced analysis that is both informative and thought-provoking.
