Apr 26, 9:30 AM: Global Capitalism and the Crisis of Work

0
0
The History, Social Theory, and Capitalism Project of the Chicago Center for Contemporary Theory; the Center for the Study of Race, Politics and Culture; and The Center for the Study of Gender and Sexuality are sponsoring a two-day conference on "Global Capitalism and the Crisis of Work," to be held at the University of Chicago on April 26 and 27, 2013. The conference will be devoted to the structural transformations of capitalism and of the world of work in recent decades. It will also investigate the effects of these changes on the gendered and racialized nature of work. Finally, it will ask about the future of work itself. Work and its social, cultural, and political problems have become increasingly peripheral to academic studies of democratic politics and of social movements in recent decades. Ironically, this diminished interest in work - its history, meaning, political potential, and likely place in the future world - has occurred during a fundamental transformation of work and its social meaning that cries out for critical analysis. The goal of this conference is to take stock of these transformations and to ponder their implications. Persons with a disability who believe they may need assistance, please email Parker Everett at peverett@uchicago.edu

Starts: April 26, 2013
Ends: April 27, 2013
Time: 9:30 AM - 5:30 PM
