Runaway Capitalism

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Conducted on four continents, the research shows how runaway capitalism is making work and daily life ever-more precarious and sparking anti-precarity movements. Tracing these metamorphoses both in the global North and global South, the author identifies plausible scenarios for blunting the sharp edges of runaway capitalism.
