As changes occur in how work is organised across the globe, What's wrong with work shows that how workers are treated has wide implications beyond the lives of workers themselves. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Recognising gender, race, class and global differences, the book looks at three kinds of increasingly important work - green work, IT work and the 'gig' economy - within the context of the neoliberal society, the promises of technologisation and anticipated environmental catastrophe. It considers the ways formal work is often dependent on informal work, especially domestic work and care work.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Accessible and engaging, it concludes by considering political and ethical questions in what might make work better, arguing that there is a collective responsibility to address bad work.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Lynne Pettinger\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1447340086\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781447340089\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Policy Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/24\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 240\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.55lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.40h x 5.40w x 0.80d","brand":"Lynne Pettinger","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48485214716159,"sku":"9781447340089","price":21.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_f39d7a0e-99f3-4751-a2bb-85e4eae7d969.jpg?v=1778048662","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/whats-wrong-with-work-lynne-pettinger-9781447340089","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
