Recasting Workers' Power : Work and Inequality in the Shadow of the Digital Age Paperback / softback
by Edward (Southern Centre of Inequality Studies, University of the Witwatersrand) Webster, Lynford (KU Leuven and University of Johannesburg) Dor
Paperback / softback
Description
Much of the debate on the future of work has focused on responses to technological trends in the Global North, with little evidence on how these trends are impacting work and workers in the Global South.
Drawing on a rich selection of ethnographic studies of precarious work in Africa, this innovative book discusses how globalisation and digitalisation are drivers for structural change and examines their implications for labour.
Bringing together global labour studies and inequality studies, it explores the role of digital technology in new business models, and ways in which digitalisation can be harnessed for counter mobilisation by the new worker.
