Focusing on workers in Canada and Mexico and using a gender and race analysis, this book paints a bleak portrait of the lives of working people, where workers and their families continually renegotiate the effects of neo-liberal economic and social change. These changes see individuals working harder, longer and travelling further from home to keep their jobs, while straining familial and community relations and eroding the basis for worker solidarity and collective action.Country/Region of Manufacture: CAGenre: Society & CultureTopic: Social SciencesRelease Year: 2012 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
