Die erste umfassende kritische Darstellung von Bill Gates und seiner Stiftung. Der Imagewechsel vom skrupellosen Kapitalisten und rücksichtslosen Microsoft-Chef zum wohltätigen Gutmenschen ist Bill Gates mit Bravour gelungen. Eine fundierte kritische Berichterstattung über den vermeintlich größten Philanthropen unserer Zeit und seine Stiftung, die »Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation«, gibt es jedoch nicht. In seinem Enthüllungsbuch räumt der Journalist Tim Schwab mit dem Bild von Bill Gates als Wohltäter auf.

Story2
In The Problem with Work, Kathi Weeks boldly challenges the presupposition that work, or waged labor, is inherently a social and political good. Taking up Marxist and feminist critiques, Weeks proposes a postwork society that would allow people to be productive and creative rather than relentlessly bound to the employment relation.

Story1
Based on extensive research and workplace experience, The Female Vision demonstrates that what women perceive in organizations and beyond that goes unnoticed and unrewarded is exactly what so many companies need to succeed. Helgeson and Johnson delve deeply into the stories of a number of women whose vision improved their companies - although often they had to struggle not only against unresponsive organizations, peers, or others, but also against their own personal fears.

In recent years, dreams about our technological future have soured as digital platforms have undermined privacy, eroded labor rights, and weakened democratic discourse. In light of the negative consequences of innovation, some blame harmful algorithms or greedy CEOs. Behind the Startup focuses instead on the role of capital and the influence of financiers. Drawing on nineteen months of participant-observation research inside a successful Silicon Valley startup, this book examines how the company was organized to meet the needs of the venture capital investors who funded it.

Story1
The book is a twenty-first century reworking of the approach to unionism. The United States has a dramatic history of workers organizing on the job. In the last seventy odd years, labor organizations have made peace with owners, and wages, various protections, and safety has diminished. All during an era that, despite its ups and downs, has been extremely profitable for the ownership class. Tom Wetzel provides a solution to that failure by showing how a democratic outcome can be built into the method of struggle for social change.

When the local iron mine began hiring women in 1975, Lois Jenson, a single mother on welfare, didn't think twice about accepting the grueling but well-paid job. What she hadn't considered was that she was entering a male-dominated society that fiercely resisted the inclusion of women, a prejudice born out in the brutal harassment of every female miner.

In the past few years, online crowdworking platforms - like Amazon's Mechanical Turk and Clickworker - have become an increasingly important source of work, particularly for those in the Global South. Here, small tasks are assigned to people online, and are often used to train algorithms to spot patterns, patterns through machine learning those same algorithms will then be able to spot more effectively than humans. Used for everything from the mechanics of self-driving cars to Google image search, this is an increasingly powerful part of the digital economy.

Wie wollen und werden wir zukünftig arbeiten? Die tradierten Modelle funktionieren nicht mehr: Während die einen von ihrer Erwerbsarbeit kaum leben können, leiden viele Bereiche unter Arbeits- und Fachkräftemangel. Arbeit ist zudem eine Frage der Solidarität: Der Applaus für "systemrelevante Berufe" war von kurzer Dauer, die Care-Arbeit - vor allem von Frauen - hält das System am Laufen, wird aber weder angemessen entlohnt noch gesellschaftlich gewürdigt. Für die "Generation Z" zählt Work-Life-Balance mehr als die 40-Stunden-Woche.
