'Globalization and Work' challenges conceptions of globalisation as a project orchestrated by governments, multinational companies and international agencies. The authors highlight the importance of integrating a grounded, bottom-up perspective which recognises that globalisation is not just something that happens to working people, thereby revealing the fascinating extent to which workers actively engage in producing globalisation.
