Ruben J. Garcia: Critical Wage Theory, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

"An ambitious, provocative, and compelling account that centers race in the analysis of wage justice. This is a must-read for anyone who studies low-wage work in the US and those interested in theorizing transformational regulatory regimes that could produce living wages for all workers."--Kate Griffith, Jean McKelvey-Alice Grant Professor and Senior Associate Dean for Academic Affairs, Diversity, and Faculty Development, ILR School, Cornell University

"Ruben Garcia is a pathfinder whose clear and convincing language confronts some of the most pressing controversies of our time. His lived experience as an organizer, in combination with his expertise as a seasoned scholar of labor law, creates a compelling original argument. Critical Wage Theory is accessible far beyond the academy, and Garcia's keen analysis could hardly be more timely."--Aviam Soifer, former Dean and Professor of Law, William S. Richardson School of Law, University of Hawai'i
"An innovative exploration of class and race in the context of minimum-wage rules. Garcia applies persuasive theoretical approaches to a variety of real-world battles over legal rights. This is an important contribution to the fields of law, politics, and critical studies."--Joseph E. Slater, Distinguished University Professor and Eugene N. Balk Professor of Law and Values, University of Toledo College of Law
