"Scan this book quickly and you will think that philosophy has finally recovered a sense of imagination. Read it carefully - and recognize that every work and every author 'reviewed' here are but mere possibilities (except for one) - and you find yourself in the midst of an extraordinarily imaginative and audacious projection of what philosophy might become. 'Reinventing the culture' in the new Millennium; reinvoking the 'hidden possibilities' of human and more-than-human Others; reopening ethics in the direction of 'possibilistic' process; even 'teaching on the edge'... Oh for such a Philosophy! Oh for such Philosophers!"- Violet Woodsorrel Oxalis

This place is labelled the city of gold, Jozi Maboneng. There is indeed a constant rush, the winner takes it all, and a "survival of the fittest" mentality driving the hunger and competitive spirit of those born here, and equally seen in the eyes of the immigrants; legal and illegal alike.

Despite acute labour shortages during the Second World War, Canadian employers-with the complicity of state officials-discriminated against workers of African, Asian, and Eastern and Southern European origin, excluding them from both white collar and skilled jobs. Jobs and Justice argues that, while the war intensified hostility and suspicion toward minority workers, the urgent need for their contributions and the egalitarian rhetoric used to mobilize the war effort also created an opportunity for minority activists and their English Canadian allies to challenge discrimination. Juxtaposing a discussion of state policy with ideas of race and citizenship in Canadian civil society, Carmela K. Patrias shows how minority activists were able to bring national attention to racist employment discrimination and obtain official condemnation of such discrimination. Extensively researched and engagingly written, Jobs and Justice offers a new perspective on the Second World War, the racist dimensions of state policy, and the origins of human rights campaigns in Canada.

Jobs with Inequality

Jobs with Inequality

John Peters

University of Toronto Press

Income inequality has skyrocketed in Canada over the past few decades. The rich have become richer, while the average household income has deteriorated and job quality has plummeted. Common explanations for these trends point to globalization, technology, or other forces largely beyond our control. But, as Jobs with Inequality shows, there is nothing inevitable about inequality. Rather, runaway inequality is the result of politics and policies - what governments have done to aid the rich and boost finance and what they have not done to uphold the interests of workers. Drawing on new tax and income data, John Peters tells the story of how inequality is unfolding in Canada today by examining post-democracy, financialization, and labour market deregulation. Timely and novel, Jobs with Inequality explains how and why business and government have rewritten the rules of the economy to the advantage of the few, and considers why progressive efforts to reverse these trends have so regularly run aground.

Brazil enters the election year 2018 with an economy that is gradually recovering from the deepest recession in its recent economic history. However, for many Brazilians, the recovery has not yet translated into new and better jobs, or rising incomes. This book is motivated by the need to understand the possible drivers of future income and employment growth. Its key finding: Brazil needs to dramatically improve its performance in terms of productivity if the country is to generate lasting gains in incomes and provide better jobs for its citizens. This is all the more important, because Brazil is aging rapidly and the boost the country has enjoyed thanks to its young and growing labor force in the past three decades will disappear in just a few years’ time.

More and better jobs in the MENA region must rely on a new era of market contestability.
