Handbook of Research on the Global Political Economy of Work
Who is the "smart worker"? Who should she be
South-South Cooperation Beyond the Myths
This book, which brings together scholars from the developed and developing world, explores one of the most salient features of contemporary international relations: South-South cooperation. It builds
EU labour law section
As opposed to the allusions made both in the British media and politicians' statements, particularly in the Leave campaign, that the EU has created negative living conditions for people in Britain, EU labour law has had a positive effect on local labour law and free movement of labour is a crucial aspect of social, economic and political development. This article focusses on EU labour law to make this argument, looking first at the ways that Brit…
Changing problematic parent–child interaction in child anxiety disorders
The quantified self
Implementation of quantified self technologies in workplaces relies on the ontological premise of Cartesian dualism with mind dominant over body. Contributing to debates in new materialism, we demonstrate that workers are now being asked to measure our own productivity and health and well-being in art-houses and warehouses alike in both the global north and south. Workers experience intensified precarity, austerity, intense competition for jobs a…
Class and panic in British immigration
In Policing the Crisis, Stuart Hall et al. (1978) explored the calculus of work and the trope around portraying certain categories of people as taking advantage of the majority, without evidence. The concept of work became abstracted so that it was longer about employment, but about conformity with certain norms. The moralising discourse of work as a moral duty, also as connected to citizenship, underpins debates on immigration. Politicians and r…
Globalization and the 'New' Semi-Peripheries
This collection re-examines and re-assesses the role of the semi-periphery in world politics and argues that the processes of globalization have led us to widen our understanding of the semi-periphery
Exploitation of the self in community-based software production
Free and open-source software (FOSS) communities constitute an arena in which thousands of users voluntarily explore design codes, spot bugs in codes, and make contributions to the code in a fashion at odds with the otherwise hugely competitive software market. This computerisation movement emerged as a challenge to the domination of such behemoth firms as Microsoft and IBM, and is portrayed as having a revolutionary ultimate goal: 'to provide fr…
Parallel visions of peer production
The 'parallel visions' proposed by the contributing authors to this issue are intended to challenge the dominant themes of capitalist organisation and production through an in-depth look at peer-to-peer production and the development of software and sharing - a movement which, the authors argue, is based on new visions for value systems, ethics and governance. We have organised their contributions into sections based on the relevant aspects of th…
The Trichotillomania Scale for Children
Global Governance
These books explicitly underline the necessity to revive and continue the “global governance” debate that has dominated both academic and policy relevant circles since the Commission on Global Governance in the 1990s. Technological developments, increase of foreign direct investment into and in some instances the subsequent abandonment of particular industries, increasing tensions of global and national union politics, and the questionable fate o…
Global Knowledge Capitalism, Self-woven Safety Nets, and the Crisis of Employability
In today’s global political economy, knowledge has become an asset, and workers are expected to arm themselves with an appropriate shield of knowledge that will make, and keep themselves employable in the era of flexibility and technological innovation. The emphasis on employability of individuals through workers’ creation of what I call selfwoven safety nets demonstrates an elite-led project to reduce government responsibility for employment wel…
Revolutions from above
While making very substantial changes to the population's working conditions, government strategies to foster economic development in South Korea have historically attempted to keep worker involvement, in terms of influence on the process, to a bare minimum. Applying the Gramscian concept of passive revolution, this article analyses governance mechanisms and production relations over a history of authoritarianism and up to the contemporary period…
