Recenzje

" The Fight for Time is a marvelously original and timely contribution to both the critical study of work and to democratic theory and practice. Paul Apostolidis approaches the case of immigrant day laboring in the U.S. as at once exceptional and paradigmatic, as a singularly difficult way of making a living and as an exemplar of the growing precaritization of work and life in the contemporary economy. With his carefully attentive analyses of the methodologies, epistemologies, and politics of co-research, Apostolidis offers the field of political theory a compelling new template for politically engaged knowledge production."-Kathi Weeks, author of The Problem with Work: Feminism, Marxism, Antiwork Politics and Postwork Imaginaries
