Now these same concerns have shifted, as the study of development has turned its attention to how these same phenomena affect metropolitan capitalist nations. For this reason, the book does not restrict the analysis of issues such as the free/unfree labour distinction and non-class identity to Third World contexts. The reviews, review essays and essays collected here also examine similar issues now evident in metropolitan capitalism, together with their political and ideological effects and implications. 410 0$aStudies in Critical Social Sciences$v102. 606 $aLabor market 606 $aLabor$xHistory$y21st century 606 $aLabor$2fast 606 $aLabor market$2fast 608 $aElectronic books. 608 $aHistory.$2fast 615 0$aLabor market. 615 0$aLabor$xHistory 615 7$aLabor. 615 7$aLabor market. 676 $a331.12 700 $aBrass$b Tom$0940628 801 0$bNL-LeKB 801 1$bNL-LeKB 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910163120403321 996 $aLabour markets, identities, controversies$92121101 997 $aUNINA
