This book maps the differences and similarities in the ways precariousness and insecurity in employment unfold and are experienced in regions and sectors that are confronted with different labour histories, legislations and economic priorities. Establishing a constructive dialogue amongst different global regions and across disciplines, the authors explore the shift from precariousness to precariat and collective subjects as it is being articulated in the current global crisis. Offering a critical analysis of contemporary forms of production and labour policies, this book aims to understand and develop new conceptual tool and practices from the standpoint of those affected by precariousness.

"It is against such expansive theoretical terrain that Armano, Bove and Murgia's edited volume sets out to trace the contours and expand on current conceptualisations. Suitably subtitled Subjectivities and Resistance: An Introduction, the volume considers the structural context of precarious work, yet goes beyond and engages with the grainy, casual and colloquial body of precarious narratives that emerge from the grass-roots and are in danger of being overlooked. The book is divided into three parts, investigating the precarious experience on three different levels and from three different standpoints."

"Angela Mitropoulos's final, summary chapter is particularly noteworthy as it connects the precarity of labour market structures with the precariousness of existence in a mosaic of markets, state policy, labour valorisation and regulative order. It restates the continued scope for individual resistance in the face of precarious odds, reminding that the volume is equally concerned with past trends, and the direction of future travel."

"This book represents an important work if we are to understand the transformations happening in the world of work, of professional life and, also, its repercussions in everyday life and the sphere of reproduction and care"
