Summary

'A breath of fresh air' - Norman Finklestein

 
Workers in the Global South are doomed through economic imperialism to carry the burden of the entire world. While these workers appear isolated from the Global North, they are in fact deeply integrated into global commodity chains and essential to the maintenance of global capitalism.

 
Looking at contemporary case studies in India, the Philippines and South Africa, this book affirms the significance of political and economic representation to the struggles of workers against deepening levels of poverty and inequality that oppress the majority of people on the planet.

 
Immanuel Ness shows that workers are eager to mobilise to improve their conditions, and can achieve lasting gains if they have sustenance and support from political organisations. From the Dickensian industrial zones of Delhi to the agrarian oligarchy on the island of Mindanao, a common element remains – when workers organise they move closer to the realisation of socialism, solidarity and equality.

    The promotion through YouTube will be one of the biggest opportunities that this social platform makes available and through the right skills, we will know how to enhance and make the best of what YouTube offers us. Success comes through YouTube views, visits obtained by watching that specific video or that specific channel. In this case, every user registered on the platform, (after the marriage with Google, just a Big G account), can become (in one fell swoop) a publisher, author, director and screenwriter of their YouTube channel, which will be instantly reachable throughout the world and official disseminator of your ideas. Or you can decide to become simply a spectator with decidedly active connotations, together with many other viewers; means the success of a video or of the same YouTube channel, and also a reflection of a brand or an idea. The YouTube views are therefore the number of views that the video gets, not to be confused with the YouTube Likes, which instead indicate your liking related to the video or channel viewed. The second concept is not entirely different from what made Facebook famous and is one of the first parameters to keep in mind to achieve success. Making a video and uploading it to YouTube is easy, but it is even easier to end up in obscurity and never reach the desired visibility. Our goal is to provide the right information not to end up in a dead-end and not remain anonymous. Whether you are a company or a private individual with a new idea, we have the means of promotion for your YouTube Marketing and we are able to offer you a solid marketing plan. As with any product, even YouTube has its own good rules and its good techniques to stay on the crest of the wave and we study and apply it daily. What are you still waiting for?

    Society largely praises early risers, while maligning so-called "night owls." However, countless research studies have consistently shown that night owls are more successful and wealthier than early risers. The Morning Myth is intended to prove otherwise, and to show that, indeed, night owls are generally more successful in life than early risers. The book is intended to restore self-confidence to night owls and help them to achieve more on their natural schedules, and also to inform employers on just how much productivity they're losing by forcing night owls to be at work bright and early, and advising them on how to schedule both early risers and night owls for maximum productivity to the employer and maximum happiness to the employee.
