As globalisation intensifies, workers everywhere are forced to compete for wages – not through foreign investment and outsourcing, but through an increasingly mobile working class.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eHenaway rejects the dominant responses of restricting or \"managing\" migration through temporary worker programmes, proposing that stopping a race to the bottom for all working people involves building solidarity with migrant worker struggles for decent work and justice.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThrough examining the organising strategies of migrant workers at giants like Amazon and Wal-Mart as well as discount retailers like Dollarama and Sports Direct, the immense power and agency of precarious workers in global companies like UBER or Airbnb, the successful resistance of taxi drivers or fast food workers around the world, and the contemporary mass labour movement organised by new unions and workers' centres, Henaway shows how migrant demands and strategies can help shape radical working class politics.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eEssential Work, Disposable Workers\u003c\/em\u003e illustrates these dynamics and offers a radical perspective on the power and potential of migrant workers in reshaping the future of global labour movements.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Unknown","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47424093749484,"sku":"9781773632254","price":51.99,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/9781773632254.jpg?v=1774769177"}],"url":"https:\/\/bookhero.co.nz\/collections\/mostafa-henaway.oembed","provider":"Book Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
