Made to Work analyses the conditions of mobile knowledge work (MKW)
in contemporary worklives, contrasting and drawing parallels among
three highly significant sectors of the Knowledge Economy:
academia, information communication technology (ICT) management,
and digital creative work. It introduces the concept of 'corollary
work' to characterise the elusive work underpinning the
configuration of workers, informational, technological, relational
and infrastructural resources in (re)producing liveable worklives.
It ultimately illuminates the myriad strands of corollary work that
enable MKW to take place and contributes to emergent debates on how
exploitation, at least in the domain of MKW, can be named, resisted
and creatively subverted. In so doing, it opens up a conversation
about the complex ways in which contemporary worklives are 'made to
work', and about potential interventions to bring about more just
worklife conditions in the future.
