A much-needed, Marxist economic account of service and retail work,
as well as the political alternatives. In Service Workers in the
Era of Monopoly Capital, Fabian van Onzen uses Marxist theory to
analyse the process by which service and retail workers are
exploited by the capitalist class. His analysis takes us through
the primary concepts of Marxism-surplus-value, commodity form,
etc.-and demonstrates their relevance for understanding the service
industry. The book reveals that service and retail workers-shop
employees, cleaners, hospitality workers-are integral to the
capitalist system and have significant power to transform society
if organised effectively. Van Onzen argues that the key to ending
the exploitation of service workers is through the socialist
transformation of society. The book contains an examination of how
service work could be organised under socialism and provides
examples of how former socialist countries changed the nature of
service labour.
