From the publisher: "INFORMAL WORK AND SOCIAL CHANGE cites more than 800 works, covering a period from 1970-1996. Using key words to describe major themes of each citation, Shelley Feldman and Eveline Ferretti also provide annotations to summarize the more substantive works. The bibliographic section is flanked by an introductory essay discussing major strands of thought and research on the informal sector, a section defining key words and concepts, and two indexes, one by country and one by key words. In their introductory essay, the editors explain that while the literature on informal work shares a focus on the experience and performance of economic activity outside factories, firms, and agencies, it encompasses wide divergence on the relation of informal work to industrial development and economic change. As a result, the body of work may appear highly disjointed. By providing a broad overview of the key themes and positions explored by past and current researchers on the informal sector, the editors highlight how different conceptions of informality build upon and reframe current understandings of global economic restructuring. Their bibliography also unites work that has been sequestered in the publications of many separate disciplines." . First Edition. Hardcover. Near Fine condition/No dust jacket, as issued.

Paperback. Condizione: New. Accumulating Insecurity examines the relationship between two vitally important contemporary phenomena: a fixation on security that justifies global military engagements and the militarization of civilian life, and the dramatic increase in day-to-day insecurity associated with contemporary crises in health care, housing, incarceration, personal debt, and unemployment.Contributors to the volume explore how violence is used to maintain conditions for accumulating capital. Across world regions violence is manifested in the increasingly strained, often terrifying, circumstances in which people struggle to socially reproduce themselves. Security is often sought through armaments and containment, which can lead to the impoverishment rather than the nourishment of laboring bodies. Under increasingly precarious conditions, governments oversee the movements of people, rather than scrutinize and regulate the highly volatile movements of capital. They often do so through practices that condone dispossession in the name of economic and political security.…

Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. The debt crisis and global economic changes of the past decade have caused Third World nations to restructure economic policies and the labor market and to liberalize their economies. This text uses country-based studies to analyze the consequences of economic crisis in terms of changing state practices, household and family organization, patterns of resource allocation, and womens work. Contributors examine not only patterns of response to changing economic circumstances but also strategies of choice.;The debt crisis and global economic changes of the past decade have caused Third World nations to restructure economic policies, community resources, the labor market, and intrahousehold divisions of labor. These changes have swelled the ranks of the unemployed, the poor, and the malnourished. Women, in particular, have been affected negatively by processes of structural adjustment because they represent a disproportionate share of the worlds poor, are increasingly represented among low-wage workers, and are forced to balance wage work with subsistence and domestic production in meeting household needs.Using country-based studies, this text offers new perspectives on the consequences of economic crisis in terms of changing state practices and household and family organization, patterns of resource allocation, and womens work. Throughout, the contributors raise two critical questions: Fo;r what segments of the population do austerity measures mean more limited access to food, social services, and unemployment? For whom do they create increased access to credit and new incentives to expand production, thus increasing accumulation and profit-making opportunities? The field-based investigations of crisis and poverty also emphasize the salience of gender relations and embrace a view of the household and its diverse organizational forms and relations as a contradictory institution in which conflict and cooperation create the complex dynamic of daily survival.
