Description
Half our waking hours are spent on the job, consuming the lion''s share of
our time. Our years are woven with stories of work told around the dinner
table, breakroom, and bars. Yet these stories are rarely put into print,
investigated, or seen as they should be; as part of workers'' activity to
understand and change their lot under capitalism. LINES OF WORK offers a
rare look at life and social relationships viewed from the cubicle, cash
register, hospital, factory, and job site. Drawn from the writings of
Recomposition, an online project of worker radicals, the text brings
together organizers from a handful of countries sharing their experiences
with the trouble of working and fighting back. Rather than professional
writers or activists, the authors are workers reflecting on their
experiences, aspirations, and how to improve our situation. Through
storytelling, they draw out the lessons of workplace woes, offering new
paths and perspectives for social change and a new world.
