"This book makes an important, influential, and timely contribution to the study of global inequality in the context of labor markets, framed as "the future of work," a framing that prioritizes a western bias toward waged work and full employment, neglects the contribution of nonwaged work to wealth creation, and fails to consider the historical and ongoing ways in which global patterns of accumulation are built on (neo)colonial, racialized, and gendered forms of labor devaluation and resource extraction.

This approach enables sociologists, political theorists, and economists to understand and challenge structures and longstanding patterns that create and sustain pernicious asymmetries of wealth and power within as well as among countries, especially in the landscapes of livelihood.
