Summary

Far from witnessing the beginning of the end of organized labour as a major political force, Rethinking Global Labour argues that, post-financial crisis, we are entering a new era for workers and their organizations in which they will begin to impact decisively on the new global order. In exploring the potential futures for the world’s workers, the book provides an insightful account of how globalization has created a new global working class while increasing the insecurity and precarious nature of most employment. Moving beyond categories of North and South, Munck argues that the new global class of workers will be central both to the future of globalization and to its possible alternatives. In some ways the book poses a “return to the future” drawing parallels with the birth of the labour and democratic movements before the consolidation of nation states. At a time of growing unease with the negative effects of economic globalization, Rethinking Global Labour offers an important assessment of global labour and its potential for organization.

    Many of what we think of as Information Age tools and media—computers, cell phones, the Internet, encryption, and more—evolved directly out of modern warfare. These tools started with World War I, accelerated through World War II and the Cold War, and now play a center role in both declared and non-declared conflicts like election interference and cyberbattles.We buy phones and smart speakers because they are new and unlock great potential. Voice assistants like Siri and Alexa help us do our work and answer that one piece of trivia that bugs us. Yet these devices are data gatherers. They collect, repackage, and monetize our questions, purchases, photographs, web surfing to form a data industry now larger than the oil industry.Well over 100 years ago the data industry put in place a business model that trades our attention for news and entertainment. That model has evolved into a complex art and science of message targeting and content ownership that has splintered communities while simultaneously concentrating media ownership to a few massive corporations. Forged in War takes a critical look at the systems we use and how we ended up in a society that values data over personal liberty and commerce over the public good.

    In 1952, Napoleon Hill spoke at a dental convention. He was introduced by insurance tycoon W. Clement Stone. Stone had been given a copy of Hill's best-selling book, Think and Grow Rich, and was so impressed that he gave away thousands of copies. 
    Hill and Stone jointly wrote Success Through a Positive Mental Attitude in 1960, and it became an immediate best-seller. Over 50 years later, the book still sells well in the United States and all over the world. 
    Maker of Miracle Men is the result of Hill's work with Stone. Prefacing the speech is the excellent introduction that Stone gave Hill.
