Peripheral Labour: Studies in the History of Partial Proletarianization - International Review of Social History Supplements
Shahid Amin
This volume takes an alternative look at the notion of 'wage-workers'. The contributors suggest that the idea of a 'pure' working class should be reconsidered and examine specific South Asian and Latin American case studies. By rethinking the fundamental assumptions of 'classical' labor and working-class history, this volume contributes to the development of a non-Eurocentric historiography.
