Recent developments in the organization of work and production have
facilitated the decline of wage employment in many regions of the
world. However, the idea of the wage continues to dominate the
political imaginations of governments, researchers and activists,
based on the historical experiences of industrial workers in the
global North. This edited collection revitalises debates on the
future of work by challenging the idea of wage employment as the
global norm. Taking theoretical inspiration from the global South,
the authors compare lived experiences of 'ordinary work' across
taken-for-granted conceptual and geographical boundaries; from
Cambodian brick kilns to Catalonian cooperatives. Their
contributions open up new possibilities for how work, identity and
security might be woven together differently. This volume is an
invaluable resource for academics, students and readers interested
in alternative and emerging forms of work around the world.
