Description
This edited collection provides a global context for students studying the sociology of work and organisations. Comprising short, example-led chapters, it covers a range of contemporary topics, including the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, digitalisation, and the gig economy.
Case studies from diverse locations, such as China, Britain, Germany, and the Mexico-US border, offer perspectives from both the Global North and South, enabling students to analyse new developments in the rapidly changing world of work. The book explores inequalities and marginalisation in the workplace, including issues related to digitalisation, precarious employment, and climate change.
Useful pedagogical resources are included, such as practice exam questions, key concepts, and further readings, making this an essential resource for undergraduate and postgraduate students studying the sociology of work, business management, and organisation.
