Das Werk ist Teil der Reihe: Dynamics of Virtual Work
Produktbeschreibung
The emerging world of virtual
work is not tied to physical workplaces or particular locations, but is
dispersed and footloose. It is frequently precarious, and blurs the boundaries
between work and non-work, production and consumption.
Contributors to this wide-ranging
volume of case studies identify the growing and diverse army of virtual
workers. Building from an overarching introduction which discusses the salient
features of virtual work, this collection considers the challenges in
analysing the class position of virtual workers.
Virtual Workers and the
Global Labour Market features
international examples of emerging occupations and working conditions in new
media, gaming, journalism, advertising and branding, software development and
offshore services. Cross-disciplinary insights from across the social sciences
inform contributions on labour market entry, employment relations, precariousness,
the dynamics of virtual teams, and cyberbullying, in order to illustrate the
diversity of virtual work, its circumstances and its labour force.
