The precariousness of knowledge workers: Hybridisation, self-employment and subjectification / A. Murgia, L. Maestripieri, E. Armano. - In: WORK ORGANISATION, LABOUR & GLOBALISATION. - ISSN 1745-641X. - 10:2(2016), pp. 1-8. [10.13169/workorgalaboglob.10.2.0001]
Abstract:
In knowledge-based industries, work is circumscribed by the cognitive frames of creativity in the representations of subjects, but simultaneously demands adaptability, in a context in which deregulation and individualisation are now normal. The ethics of self-activation are therefore inextricably intertwined with the demands of intensification, standardisation and self-commodification. The first volume of this Special Issue - which is made up of two different parts - focuses on the phenomena of hybridisation, self-employment and subjectification, at the core of the experiences of precarious workers in knowledge societies. This article introduces the first part of the two-part Special Issue on the precariousness of knowledge workers.
