{"product_id":"invisible-labor-marion-crain-9780520287174","title":"Invisible Labor: Hidden Work in the Contemporary World","description":"Across the world, workers labor without pay for the benefit of profitable businesses--and it's legal. Labor trends like outsourcing and technology hide some workers, and branding and employer mandates erase others. Invisible workers who remain under-protected by wage laws include retail workers who function as walking billboards and take payment in clothing discounts or prestige; waitstaff at \"breastaurants\" who conform their bodies to a business model; and inventory stockers at grocery stores who go hungry to complete their shifts. \u003ci\u003eInvisible Labor\u003c\/i\u003e gathers essays by prominent sociologists and legal scholars to illuminate how and why such labor has been hidden from view.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Marion Crain\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0520287177\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780520287174\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of California Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/28\/2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 336\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.00lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.90h x 5.90w x 0.90d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChoice\u003c\/i\u003e 04\/01\/2017","brand":"Marion Crain","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43946701357311,"sku":"9780520287174","price":29.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_2ad3c1d9-072f-472f-9a64-a8c875dd30d9.jpg?v=1681514640","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/invisible-labor-marion-crain-9780520287174","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
