Argues that the changing world of work cannot be divorced from several overlapping power dynamics that have resonance to wider societal debates: issues of labour market inclusion and exclusion or marginalisation, profit and wealth distribution, political influence and employment regulation, union representation and community solidarity and agency.
Front Jacket
This book explores how power operates in workplace settings at local, national and transnational levels. It argues that how people are valued in and out of work is a political dynamic, which reflects and shapes how societies treat their citizens. Offering vital resources for activists and students on labour rights, employment issues and trade unions, this book argues that the influence workers can exert is changing dramatically and future challenges for change can be positive and progressive.
