Spaces of Work is an accessible examination of the role of labour
in the modern world. The authors critically assess the present
condition and future prospects for workers through the geographies
of place, space and scale, and in conjunction with other more
commonly studied components of the globalisation such as
production, trade and finance.
Each chapter presents examples of labour practice from around
the world, and across multiple sectors of work, not just Western
manufacturing. In addition, the book features:
- further reading section with key questions
- glossary of key terms
- short summaries of the main theoretical approaches
- guide to further learning resouces
Spaces of Work is a key book for all social scientists
interested in the contemporary state of labour, and the scope for
progressive change within the capitalist system. Students of human
geography, sociology, international political economy, economics
and cultural studies will all find this an invaluable text.
