Reseña del libro "The Many Futures of Work: Rethinking Expectations and Breaking Molds (en Inglés)"
What will work eventually look like? This is the question at the heart of this timely collection. The editors and contributors--a mix of policy experts, academics, and advocates--seek to reframe the typical projections of the "future" of work. They examine the impact of structural racism on work, the loss of family-sustaining jobs, the new role of gig work, growing economic inequality, barriers to rewarding employment such as age, gender, disability, and immigration status, and the business policies driving these ongoing challenges. Together the essays present varied and practical insights into both U.S. and global trends, discuss the role of labor activism in furthering economic justice, and examine progressive strategies to improve the experience of work, wages, and the lives of workers. The Many Futures of Work offers a range of viable policies and practices that can promote rewarding employment and steer our course away from low-wage, unstable jobs toward jobs that lead to equitable prosperity and economic inclusion.
