Description

This collection provides the history and background necessary to understand authoritarianism in countries ranging from Russia to eSwatini and from Brazil to the Philippines, as well as conceptual lenses for understanding authoritarianism and resistance to it, specific practical experiences of establishing international solidarity and debates emerging from that imperative. Its chapters cover the convergence of politics with the organisation of labour under authoritarianism, the use of labour laws and institutions to suppress labour, alternatives to conventional trade unions where unions are co-opted or banned, and the treatment of refugees in unequal labour markets. This book will appeal to labour activists, scholars and workers everywhere.With contributions byCecilia Brighi, Ramon Certeza, Claire Ceruti, Frank Hoffer, Elaine Sio-ieng Hui, Can Kaya, Basak Kocadost, Svetlana Kolganova, Kaye Liang, Lizaveta Merliak, Christopher Siu Tat Mung, Moreblessing Nyambara, Yury Ravavoi, Melisa Serrano, Fundizwi Sikhondze, Fundizwi Sikhondze, Jana K.
