Charting the emergence of a new and disobedient self-government of the precarious.
Isabell Lorey, political scientist, teaches political theory and gender studies at the University of Vienna and at the University of Basel.
A welcome short companion to critical debates on precarity,
precariousness and precarization . Its first immediate value is
that of bringing to anglophone audiences a collection of short and
incisive texts that offer valuable insights into both critical
debates and political practice on precarity, particularly around
European networks and platforms.
*Antipode*
Lorey impresses with the scope and depth of her engagement with the
concept of precariousness and the strength of her argument.
*3:AM*
The important contribution of this thoughtful work is to let us
understand finally that precarity is not a passing or episodic
condition, but a new form of regulation that distinguishes this
historical time.
*Judith Butler, from the foreword*
