Sex Worker Unionisation examines the challenges and opportunities
offered by unionisation for Sex Workers. Exploring unionisation
projects undertaken by Sex Workers in most major economies, this
ground-breaking study shows how sex-workers have collectively
sought to control and organise their work and working lives by
co-determining the wage-effort with their de facto employers. It
highlights the range of significant obstacles that have impeded
their progress, including owner hostility, state regulation and the
sway of radical feminism that is present in many unions. Outlining
a more efficacious model for sex worker unionisation based upon
combining occupation unionism and social movement unionism, this
pioneering and controversial new book offers an important study of
business organization in a unique industry.
One of the major obstacles, if not "the" major obstacle, unions
face in building their influence in the workplace is the opposition
and resistance from those that own those workplaces, namely, the
employers." Global Anti-Unionism" examines the nature and form of
this anti-unionism, and in doing so explains the ways and means by
which employers have successfully maintained their right to manage.
The role of the state is also considered at length as part of the
process by which employer domination has been maintained. Set in
the context of the global north and south, this volume provides an
introduction to the key theories and concepts, followed by
historical and contemporary sections examining different countries.

This edited collection surveys and analyses new forms and
expressions of conflict at work under capitalism. Using theoretical
and empirical approaches it chapters demonstrate that there is an
underlying historical continuity to current and new forms and
expressions of conflict at work and that there is also a path
dependency by country and culture. Although the strike is in
decline in many countries, it is not so in all and different means
of expressing and resolving collective grievances are used but not
always as substitutes to the strike weapon.
