Missing Links in Labour Geography is an attempt to contribute to the on-going discussion of what issues need to be dealt with in future research, and features 17 chapters from labour geographers world-wide. The emphasis of the book is labour, which is theorized as an active agent able to mobilize and become a social force resisting the strategies of states and companies. As such, key issues are the agency of labour, power and collective mobilizations, and these are examined and illustrated via a wide range of case studies in order to develop a better and fuller appreciation of labour market processes in developed and developing countries alike.
Editors of the book are Ann Cecilie Bergene, Work Research Institute, Norway, Sylvi B. Endresen, University of Oslo, Norway and Hege Merete Knutsen, University of Oslo, Norway.
