However, there is no consensus on their meaning or how best to use them to explore social changes. This book shows how scholars have mapped out these notions, offering substantive analyses of issues such as the relationships between precariousness, debt, migration, health and workers' mobilisations, and how these relationships have changed in the context of COVID-19. 410 0$aPolicy Press scholarship online. 606 $aPrecarious employment 606 $aIndustry$2ukslc 606 $aEconomics$2thema 615 0$aPrecarious employment. 615 7$aIndustry. 615 7$aEconomics. 676 $a331.25729 702 $aChoonara$b Joseph 702 $aMurgia$b Annalisa 702 $aCarmo$b Renato Miguel do$f1971- 801 0$bStDuBDS 801 1$bStDuBDS 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910772081803321 996 $aFaces of precarity$93662996 997 $aUNINA
