Challenging the Market: The Struggle to Regulate Work and Income

Challenging the Market offers insights from eighteen scholars and activists from around the world. Calling on a tremendous range of experience in different countries, different industries, and with different groups of workers, contributors argue that labour market policy should shift to a more interventionist and compassionate footing. The authors offer suggestions for how labour policy could be reformulated to promote both efficiency and equity.
