In an age when large corporations dominate the economic and
political landscape, it is tempting to think that their power goes
largely unchecked. Originally published in 2007, Contesting the
Corporation counters this view by showing that today's corporations
are driven by political struggle, power plays and attempts to
resist control. Building on a wide range of theoretical sources,
Fleming and Spicer present an analysis of the different ways in
which power operates within the modern workplace. They begin by
building a theoretical perspective that synthesizes previous
investigations of power and resistance, identifying struggle as a
key concept. Each chapter illustrates a different dimension of
workplace struggle through an array of original empirical studies
relating to sexuality, cynicism, new social movements and new-wave
trade unionism. The book concludes by demonstrating that social
justice claims underlie even the most innocuous forms of
resistance, helping to transform some of the largest modern
corporations.
