Story
One in three American workers is now a freelancer. This “gig economy” - one that provides neither the guarantee of steady hours nor benefits - emerged out of the digital era and has revolutionized the way we do business. High-profile tech start-ups such as Uber and Airbnb are constantly making headlines for the disruption they cause to the industries they overturn. But what are the effects of this disruption, from Wall Street down to Main Street? What challenges do employees and job seekers face at every level of professional experience?

Story
College costs more today than ever and is worth less. Tuition at public colleges has more than tripled in the past 50 years. Over the same period student debt has grown from virtually nothing to more than $1.7 trillion, second only to home mortgages. Skyrocketing student-loan burdens are leading an entire generation to put off the traditional milestones of adulthood: buying homes, getting married, starting families, and saving for retirement.

Story
Mainstream conceptions of social work usually consider it to fall within the framework of particular legal and societal contexts. As such, it is presented with boundaries for legitimate action even as it espouses principles that may require it to challenge these boundaries. How does one do social work in legal and societal contexts that challenge these principles with institutional and state-mandated exclusion and discrimination? Should social workers simply act within the bounds of the law in line with their professional sanction and mandate?

Story
At first glance, sports may appear as simple games of athleticism and skill. However, nestled within every cheer, every match, and each strategy is a reflection of the world's deeper political, societal, and economic narratives. "Ballgames & Boardrooms" delves into this intricate dance between sports and the inherent global structures it both represents and influences. From the gladiatorial arenas of Ancient Rome to the modern football stadiums, this essay dissects how sports have been employed as tools by elites to not only entertain but to dictate, control, and pacify the masses.

Story
Abramowitsch hat eine, der Emir von Abu Dhabi auch, Jeff Bezos sowieso: Superyachten sind Ausweis der Zugehörigkeit zum Club der "lucky few". Sie ermöglichen grenzenlose Mobilität und exklusiven Geltungskonsum. Zugleich sind sie schwimmende Umweltsünden. Sie verbrennen Unmengen Treibstoff, ihre Anker zerstören kostbare Flora. Und sie sind Spielfelder obszöner Ungleichheit: Während ihre Besitzer zu den einflussreichsten Menschen der Welt gehören, ist das Bordpersonal oft Willkür und Rechtlosigkeit ausgeliefert.

Story
Paola Mastrocola e Luca Ricolfi per la prima volta insieme in un libro per denunciare a due voci il paradossale e tragico abbaglio della scuola democratica, che, nata per salvare i più deboli, oggi di fatto ne annega le speranze. Due voci, di cui una lancia un’ipotesi e l’altra la raccoglie, provandola con la forza dei dati, testandola con modelli matematici e arrivando alla conferma. Sì, è così: una scuola facile e di bassa qualità allarga il solco fra ceti alti e ceti bassi. Un disastro, di cui rendere conto e chiedere scusa, ai ragazzi e alle loro famiglie.

Story
Wie wollen und werden wir zukünftig arbeiten? Die tradierten Modelle funktionieren nicht mehr: Während die einen von ihrer Erwerbsarbeit kaum leben können, leiden viele Bereiche unter Arbeits- und Fachkräftemangel. Arbeit ist zudem eine Frage der Solidarität: Der Applaus für "systemrelevante Berufe" war von kurzer Dauer, die Care-Arbeit - vor allem von Frauen - hält das System am Laufen, wird aber weder angemessen entlohnt noch gesellschaftlich gewürdigt. Für die "Generation Z" zählt Work-Life-Balance mehr als die 40-Stunden-Woche.

Inequality is up. Decent work is down. Free market fundamentalism has been exposed as a tragic failure. In a job market upended by COVID-19—with Canadians caught in the grip of precarious labour, stagnant wages, a climate crisis, and the steady creep of automation—an ever-louder chorus of voices calls for a liveable and obligation-free basic income.

Injustice. Black America. Media. Corruption at the highest levels of government. Only one dollar. This is the case you've never heard of--until now. In City of Los Angeles v. Preferred Communications, the US District Court, Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals, and the US Supreme Court agreed that the city had violated the civil rights of half a million people for 10 years and had refused to comply with a nine-zero decision by the Supreme Court of the United States.

Story
The Blood on My Lips from Biting My Tongue shines a light on the strenuous working conditions at the largest growing provider of goods in America today and its impact on the working class. Too many Americans are affected by income inequality and harsh working conditions. For far too long, these corporations have held on to their profits with little to no regard for the livelihoods of their employees. Their pockets grow while the average American’s pockets shrink. These conditions have pushed employees to their breaking point.

Are taxi drivers in today's era of the ride-hail app performing care work akin to domestic and household labor? Drawing on interviews with drivers, labor organizers, and members of licensing commissions, as well as case law and other published resources, Spent Behind the Wheel is a must for listeners interested in critical studies of technological change and the gig economy, showing how drivers' capacities are drained for the benefit of riders, corporations, and the maintenance of the racial state.

På væggen hænger der et portræt af den ulykkelige fru Gunilla, som boede på Stjernholm for mere end hundrede år siden. Øjnene kigger bedende på Magdalena, og læberne bevæger sig som om de ville sige "Hjælp mig!" Ja, Magdalena vil gerne hjælpe.

Story
The last acceptable form of prejudice in America is based on class and executed through state-sponsored economic discrimination. While the American meritocracy officially denounces prejudice based on race and gender, it has spawned a new form of bias against those with less education and income. Millions of working-class Americans have their opportunity blocked by exclusionary snob zoning. These government policies make housing unaffordable, frustrate the goals of the civil rights movement, and lock in inequality in our urban and suburban landscapes.
