The start of the twenty-first century has been marked by global
demands for economic justice. From the pink tide and Arab spring to
Occupy and anti-austerity, the last twenty years have witnessed the
birth of a new type of mass mobilisation. Where Are The Unions?
compares, for the first time, the challenges faced by movements in
Latin America, the Arab world and Europe. Workers' strikes and
protests were a critical part of these events, yet their role has
been significantly underestimated in many of the subsequent
narratives. This book focuses on the complex interactions between
organised workers, the unemployed, self-employed, youth, students
and the state, and critically assesses the concept of the
'precariat'. With contributions from across four continents, this
is the most comprehensive look at the global context of mass
mobilisation in the twenty-first century.
