{"product_id":"revaluing-workers-tobias-schulze-cleven-9780913447222","title":"Revaluing Work(ers): Toward a Democratic and Sustainable Future","description":"\u003cp\u003eHow can we build a future of work that meets pressing challenges and delivers for workers? Contemporary societies are beset by interrelated ecological, political, and economic crises, from climate change to democratic erosion and economic instability. Uncertainty abounds about the sustainability of democratic capitalism. Yet mainstream debates on the evolution of work tend to remain narrowly circumscribed, exhibiting both technological and market determinism.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis volume presents a labor studies perspective on the future of work, arguing that revaluing work--the efforts and contributions of workers--is crucial to realizing the promises of democracy and improving sustainability. It emphasizes that collective political action, and the collective agency of workers in particular, is central to driving this agenda forward. Moreover, it maintains that reproductive work--labor efforts from care to education that sustain the reproduction of society--can function as a crucible of innovation for the valuation and governance of work more broadly.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eContributors: Robert Bruno, University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign; J.
