Negotiating "Safe" Rights versus Seeking Social Justice --Conclusion: The Future of Labor Rights in the Working Environment --Notes --Bibliography --IndexToday, hazardous work kills 2.3 million people each year and injures millions more. Among the most compelling yet controversial forms of legal protection for workers is the right to refuse unsafe work. The rise of globalization, precarious work, neoliberal politics, attacks on unions, and the idea of individual employment rights have challenged the protection of occupational health and safety for workers worldwide. In Hazard or Hardship, Jeffrey Hilgert presents the protection of refusal rights as a moral and a human rights question. Hilgert finds that the protection of the right to refuse unsafe work, as constituted under international labor standards, is a failure and calls for a reexamination of worker health and safety policy from the ground up. The current model of protection follows an individual employment rights framework, which fails to protect workers against the inherent social inequalities within the employment relationship. To adequately protect the right to refuse as a human right, both in North America and around the world, Hilgert argues that a broader protection must be granted under a freedom of association framework. Hazard or Hardship will be a welcome resource for labor and environmental activists, trade union leaders, labor lawyers and labor law scholars, industrial relations experts, human rights advocates, public health professionals, and specialists in occupational safety and health.Industrial safetyLaw and legislationEmployee rightsLabor laws and legislationIndustrial safetyLaw and legislation.Employee rights.Labor laws and legislation.342/.0684Hilgert Jeffrey1974-870032MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910255447303321Hazard or hardship1942436UNINA03756nam 22005895 450 991055015060332120230126222401.09781501748127150174812210.7591/9781501748134(CKB)4100000010650440(OCoLC)1144884214(MdBmJHUP)muse81267(MiAaPQ)EBC5964948(DE-B1597)535330(DE-B1597)9781501748134(Perlego)986430(EXLCZ)99410000001065044020200406h20202020 fg 0engur|||||||nn|ntxtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierThe future of change how technology shapes social revolutions /Ray BresciaIthaca, NY :Cornell University Press,[2020]©20201 online resource (1 online resource)9781501748110 1501748114 9781501748134 1501748130 Includes bibliographical references and index.Front matter --Contents --Preface --Abbreviations --INTRODUCTION: Making Social Change Happen --1.

Putting the Matrix to Work --Notes --Bibliography --IndexIn The Future of Change, Ray Brescia identifies a series of "social innovation moments" in American history. Through these moments-during which social movements have embraced advances in communications technologies-he illuminates the complicated, dangerous, innovative, and exciting relationship between these technologies, social movements, and social change. Brescia shows that, almost without fail, developments in how we communicate shape social movements, just as those movements change the very technologies themselves. From the printing press to the television, social movements have leveraged communications technologies to advance change. In this moment of rapidly evolving communications, it's imperative to assess the role that the Internet, mobile devices, and social media can play in promoting social justice. But first we must look to the past, to examples of movements throughout American history that successfully harnessed communications technology, thus facilitating positive social change. Such movements embraced new communications technologies to help organize their communities; to form grassroots networks in order to facilitate face-to-face interactions; and to promote positive, inclusive messaging that stressed their participants' shared dignity and humanity. Using the past as prologue, The Future of Change provides effective lessons in the use of communications technology so that we can have the best communicative tools at our disposal-both now and in the future.EqualityUnited StatesHistorySocial movementsUnited StatesHistorySocial changeUnited StatesHistoryTechnological innovationsSocial aspectsUnited StatesHistoryUnited StatesSocial conditions1945-EqualityHistory.Social movementsHistory.Social changeHistory.Technological innovationsSocial aspectsHistory.303.40973Brescia Rayauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut1213280DE-B1597DE-B1597BOOK9910550150603321The future of change2802185UNINA
