The Sociology of Work - How Jobs...

Fred Grandsen

Work is a fundamental aspect of human life, shaping individual identities, social structures, and economic systems. It is not only a means of survival but also a key factor in defining social status, relationships, and self-worth. Throughout history, the nature of work has evolved alongside changes in technology, culture, and economic organization. Understanding the role of work in society requires an exploration of its historical transformations, its influence on social institutions, and its impact on individual and collective experiences.
Historically, work has been central to human survival and societal development. In pre-industrial societies, work was primarily based on subsistence activities such as hunting, gathering, and farming. Labor was often organized within kinship networks, with roles and responsibilities defined by age, gender, and tradition. As societies transitioned to agrarian economies, work became more specialized, leading to the development of social hierarchies and economic inequalities. The Industrial Revolution marked a significant shift in the organization of work, introducing wage labor, mechanized production, and urbanization. Factories replaced traditional craft industries, and work became more structured, regimented, and hierarchical.
The relationship between work and society is deeply embedded in social institutions such as family, education, and government. Family structures have long been influenced by labor demands, with economic necessity shaping household roles and responsibilities. In industrialized societies, the division between paid and unpaid labor has reinforced gender norms, with men historically participating in wage labor while women took on domestic and caregiving roles. Similarly, education systems have evolved to prepare individuals for participation in the workforce, emphasizing skills and qualifications that align with labor market needs.

Tech Monopoly - (The MIT Press...

Herbert Hovenkamp

In recent years, the astronomical rise of tech giants like Amazon, Apple, Meta, and Microsoft has been criticized as anticompetitive, and many have wondered if antitrust law can help protect workers and consumers. In Tech Monopoly, Herbert Hovenkamp explores competition problems in a wide range of high-tech firms—from those that sell purely digital products, such as video streaming, search, software, or email services, to others that sell more traditional "tactile" products, such as hardware, clothing, groceries, or rides. He offers a realistic look at the powers and limitations of antitrust law in tech markets with an assessment that is as comprehensive as it is accessible. 
 
 
 
After a general introduction to antitrust law, Tech Monopoly considers how competitive harm should be assessed in these markets. Then Hovenkamp looks at the role of large digital platforms, including Amazon, Alphabet, Apple, Meta, and Microsoft, and considers whether their size alone is an antitrust problem or if the concern should be limited to market power. Finally, the author addresses the very difficult problem of remedies. Should we "break up" big tech, and if so, how? What kind of breakup of these firms would make users or others better off? And if breakups are not the only possible antitrust fix, are there more effective and less disruptive alternatives?
