Paperback. Condition: New. A theory-driven account of the stakes and knowledge-building practices of the resurgent labor movement from organizers across the gig economy and tech industry.As tech billionaires align with Trump, they are also launching a renewed political and technological assault on labor. But it still takes worke…rs to make fortunes for the bosses, and collective action is again on the rise. The rank and file are coming from the precarious new "gig jobs" and drawing strength from a new class of worker who does the jobs that computers still cannot. Previously thought to be "unorganizable," these workers are part of a North American collective movement that is reaffirming faith in collective revolutionary action with new forms of organizing, new ways of association, and new ways of thinking and recombining labor organizing and research. To capture this growing class consciousness as it happens, the Capacitor Collective has conducted ten illuminating interviews with platform workers who are also organizers committed to connecting old motivations and new tactics in a text that shakes up the worker inquiry tradition to imagine new ways to produce knowledge with and for workers.

Paperback. Condition: New. First-hand accounts from the tech sector's resurgent labor movement as artificial intelligence gains ground in every facet of our lives. As tech billionaires align with Trump, they are also launching a renewed assault on labor through artificial intelligence and alienating tactics. But for now, it stil…l takes workers to make fortunes for the bosses, and collective action is again on the rise. The rank and file are now coming from precarious new "gig jobs" and drawing strength from a class of worker who does what computers still cannot. Previously thought to be "unorganizable," these workers are part of a North American movement that is reaffirming faith in collective revolutionary action through new methods of organizing, new ways of association, and a new synthesis of traditional labor activities with original research.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -WINNER of TheGertrude J. Robinson Book Prize, awarded by the Canadian Communication Association, and the Canadian Association of Work and Labour Studies, Book of the Year Award.This book examines the striking rise of call centres ov…er the past quarter century through the lens of the resistance and collective organizing generated by workers along the digital assembly lines. Drawing on field research in Atlantic Canada, Ireland, Italy, and New Zealand, Enda Brophy investigates the contested making of the transnational call centre workforce and its integration into the circuits of global capitalism. Moving beyond depictions of call centre labour as either entirely liberated or utterly subordinated, Language Put to Work inquires into the forms of work refusal and insubordination provoked by the spread of these communicative workplaces, including informal strategies of quitting, slacking and sabotage, conventional trade union activity, tactical innovations at the margins of the labour movement, and forms of self-organization forged by workers outside of the established trade union movement. Weaving rich empirical evidence together with political-economic analysis and theories of resistance, this book argues that the submission of language to the production of value in the call centre is a process of proletarianization rather than professionalization, and that the new working class has widely opposed this transformation. 320 pp. Englisch.
