Work in the global economy

Work in the global economy is now available to members of the University of Cambridge from volume 1 (2021) to present.

From the Bristol University Press website for the journal:

Work in the Global Economy is an interdisciplinary peer-reviewed journal that promotes understanding of work, and connections to work, in all forms and dimensions. This can mean a focus on labour processes, labour markets, labour organising and labour reproduction. The editors welcome wide-ranging contributions that extend and deepen connections between all aspects of the division of labour: from the production networks that underpin the global economy, to the gendered and racial divides that shape how work is allocated and organised.

“The journal is associated with, and rooted in, the traditions of the International Labour Process Conference (ILPC) which was established in 1983. The labour process tradition reflects certain priorities, including analysis of the pathways between capitalist political economy and the changing workplace; the centrality of work and its management and regulation to economy and society; and the development of a variety of materialist understandings of those principals.

“However, like the conference, the journal adopts a pluralist approach to theory, method and discipline. We also encourage contributions from both emerging and existing scholars. Foregrounding the diverse interests that compose labour and capital in the Global South and North, the journal promotes interdisciplinary and international agendas that have broad appeal to scholars and students of the sociology of work, employment relations and human resource management, organisational studies, political economy, labour geography, labour history and development studies”

Critica del Testo

Critica del Testo is now available to members of the University of Cambridge from volume 26 (2023) to present.

From the Viella website for the journal:

“Critica del testo was founded in 1998 by Roberto Antonelli. It draws its scientific profile from the long and well-known tradition of studies in Italian and Romance Philology; it is also however sensitive to the new perspectives resulting from the current crisis of traditional humanistic culture, which has demanded since the beginning of the XXth century a thorough rethinking of the methodologies needed to approach our disciplines, and of our very perception of what we regard as textual criticism and indeed of how to define what a ‘text’ actually is. Each year CdT opens with a monographic issue, the second and third are loosely organized according to a theme or topic, variously intended either along time or space. CdT publishes articles in all main Romance languages, in English and in German. All articles are subject to peer review.”
