What is the day-to-day reality for workers in various parts of the world, and how was it in the past? How do they work today, and how did they work in the past? These and many other questions comprise the field of the global history of work - a young discipline that is introduced with this handbook. In 8 thematic chapters, this book discusses these aspects of work in a global and long term perspective, paying attention to several kinds of work. Convict labour, slave and wage labour, labour migration, and workers of the textile industry, but also workers' organisation, strikes, and motivations for work are part of this first handbook of global labour history, written by the most renowned scholars of the profession. 606 $aWork$xMoral and ethical aspects$xHistory 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aWork$xMoral and ethical aspects$xHistory. 676 $a306.3613 686 $aNW 2000$2rvk 702 $aHofmeester$b Karin 702 $aLinden$b Marcel van der 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910367582603321 996 $aHandbook the global history of work$91980383 997 $aUNINA
