Private Government - Elizabeth Anderson - 2023 How Employers Rule Our Lives (and Why We Don't Talk About It) By: Elizabeth Anderson Narrated by: Lauren Pedersen Length: 5 hrs and 40 mins Unabridged Audiobook Release date: 06-06-23 Categories: Politics & Social Sciences, Law, Labor & Industrial Relations Language: English Publisher: Tantor Audio Format: mp3 64/48 stereo Publisher's Summary: Why our workplaces are authoritarian private governments—and why we can't see it One in four American workers says their workplace is a "dictatorship." Yet that number almost certainly would be higher if we recognized employers for what they are—private governments with sweeping authoritarian power over our lives. Many employers minutely regulate workers' speech, clothing, and manners on the job, and employers often extend their authority to the off-duty lives of workers, who can be fired for their political speech, recreational activities, diet, and almost anything else employers care to govern. In this compelling book, Elizabeth Anderson examines why, despite all this, we continue to talk as if free markets make workers free, and she proposes a better way to think about the workplace, opening up space for discovering how workers can enjoy real freedom. ©2017 Princeton University Press (P)2023 Tantor 24/7 Seedbox Support
