Discuss theories of labor globalization
Investigate the transformation of work, employment relations, and labor markets in the context of globalization. Discuss theories of labor globalization, such as the flexible accumulation thesis and the global value chains approach, in understanding how global economic restructuring, technological innovations, and labor market deregulation impact employment patterns and working conditions. Analyze research findings on the rise of precarious employment, informal labor, and migrant labor in global supply chains, as well as the role of transnational labor movements, corporate social responsibility, and labor standards in promoting decent work and social justice.
