Bringing fresh insights to the contemporary globalization debate,
this text reveals the social and political contests that give
"global" its meaning, by examining the contested nature of
globalization as it is expressed in the restructuring of work.
Louise Amoore rejects conventional explanations of globalization as
a process that automatically leads to transformations in working
lives, or as a project that is strategically designed to bring
about lean and flexible forms of production, and advances an
understanding of the social practices that constitute global
change. Through case studies that span from the labour flexibility
debates in Britain and Germany to the strategies and tactics of
corporations and workers, the author examines how globalization is
interpreted and experienced in everyday life and argues that
contestation has become a central feature of the practices that
enable or confound global restructuring.
