While these workers appear isolated from the Global North, they are in fact deeply integrated into global commodity chains and essential to the maintenance of global capitalism. Looking at contemporary case studies in India, the Philippines and South Africa, this book affirms the significance of political and economic representation to the struggles of workers against deepening levels of poverty and inequality that oppress the majority of people on the planet. Immanuel Ness shows that workers are eager to mobilise to improve their conditions, and can achieve lasting gains if they have sustenance and support from political organisations. From the Dickensian industrial zones of Delhi to the agrarian oligarchy on the island of Mindanao, a common element remains – when workers organise they move closer to the realisation of socialism, solidarity and equality.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: GBItem Height: 215mmItem Length: 135mmItem Weight: 455gAuthor: Immanuel NessGenre: Law & PoliticsTopic: Social Sciences, Business & Finance, Society & CultureBook Series: WildcatType: TextbookRelease Year: 2021 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
