Title: Contingent work, disrupted lives
Description: "Contingent Work, Disrupted Lives examines the effects of economic globalization on several manufacturing-dependent rural communities in Canada. In looking at such contemporary corporate strategies as plant closures and downsizing, authors Anthony Winson and Belinda Leach consider the impact of capitalist restructuring on the residents of various communities. The authors argue that the new rural economy has caused considerable instability and hardship in the lives of rural residents as they struggle to adapt in the face of economic upheaval."--Jacket.
