Based on long-term fieldwork, six vivid ethnographies from
Colombia, India, Poland, Spain and the southern and northern U.S.
address the dwindling importance of labor throughout the world. The
contributors to this volume highlight the growing disconnect
between labor struggles and the advancement of the greater common
good, a phenomenon that has grown since the 1980s. The collection
illustrates the defeat and unmaking of particular working classes,
and it develops a comparative perspective on the uneven
consequences of and reactions to this worldwide project. Blood and
Fire charts a course within global anthropology to address the
widespread precariousness and the prevalence of insecure and
informal labor in the twenty-first century.
