Instead, the history of labour focuses on how the working classes have been divided by factors such as race, gender, class structure and politics. These divisions are ...

It utilises a Marxist approach, not only to challenge the claims made by apologists for 'actually existing globalisation', but to explain, contextualise and problematise the rise of anti-globalisation politics. Central to the work is a critique of globalisation theory, neo-liberalism and the...
