These stories highlight sustained activism around valuing caring, ending discrimination, protecting the environment, improving worker well-being, and reimagining ways to encourage local economic development by restoring public-private social balance. Ultimately, these stories demonstrate that challenges to the neoliberal economy are possible. Neoliberalism can be viewed as a value structure that is undermining sustainable human development by elevating the level of risk experienced in daily economic life. Its hallmarks are globalization, market liberalization, deregulation, financialization, cutbacks in social provisioning through the public sector, and restructuring of labor markets in ways that increase instability. Social movements have responded, agitating for change. The stories here provide examples of how social actors engage in collective behavior to advance the objectives of economic justice, democratic participation in economic life, and human development. | | 出版日期 | Book 2017 | | 关键词 | American Time Use Survey; time use; Social movements; Coalition of Immokalee Workers; service workers; Re | | 版次 | 1 | | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-319-59779-9 | | isbn_ebook | 978-3-319-59779-9 | | copyright | The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s) 2017 |
