| Description: |
In this book, Paul Apostolidis asks what we can learn about social and economic precarity by considering the situation of Latin American migrant day laborers in the United States today. To do so, the book places Latino day laborers'' commentaries in dialogue with critical social theory. Apostolidis sees these day laborers'' circumstances both as exceptional and as synecdoches for precarious conditions that affect multitudes of workers. Through its combined approach tocritical theory and field research with migrant workers, this book makes a case for a politics that is attuned to questions of time and advanced by precarious workers throughout society. |
