It is impossible to view the news at present without hearing talk of crisis.



This timely book looks at how three major crises the economy, pandemic and climate are related to the crisis of work, making it more precarious, intense and unequal.



Providing an original and critical synthesis of recent trends in the field, expert scholars offer a programme for transcending the crisis of work.



Offering a timely contribution to understanding the important issues facing the world, this book presents an important new way of thinking about work in contemporary societies.
