This book was released on 2018-01-09 with total page 62 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from War and Postwar Developments in the Southern California Petroleum Industry Los Angeles basin has become heavily specialized in munitions industries; its industrial activity has expanded greatly; and it has, in spite of a loss of prewar population to the armed forces, experienced a ten per cent net gain in civilian population. There is consequently posed a grave problem as to how the reconversion period will affect the Southern California economy. Can the present rate of industrial activity be maintained? Can employment be provided both for the presently expanded civilian population and for the returning service personnel? Is the area prepared to advance industrially toward new and higher goals? These are only a few of the questions requiring immediate attention. Full analysis of these problems must of necessity undertake Simultaneous con sideration of the whole varied and complex economy of the area, and adequate answers can emerge only from such an analysis. It may nevertheless be helpful as an adjunct to this broad effort to undertake certain narrower investigations of various strategic segments of the economy, a detailed understanding of which may enable us better to deal with the larger issues posed.

Book excerpt: A wage is more than a simple fee in exchange for labor, argues Geoff Mann. Beyond being a quantitative reflection of productivity or bargaining power, a wage is a political arena in which working people's identity, culture, and politics are negotiated and developed. In Our Daily Bread, Mann examines struggles over wages to reveal ways in which the wage becomes a critical component in the making of social hierarchies of race, gender, and citizenship. Combining a fresh analysis of radical political economy with a critical assessment of the role of white men in North American labor politics, Mann addresses the issue of class politics and places the problem of "interests" squarely at the center of political economy. Rejecting the idea that interests are self-evident or unproblematic, Mann argues that workers' interests, and thus wage politics, are the product of the ongoing effort by wage workers to focus on quality in a socioeconomic system that relentlessly quantifies. Taking three wage disputes in the natural resources industry as his case studies, Mann demonstrates that wage negotiation is not simply emblematic of economic conflict over the distribution of income but also represents critical contests in the cultural politics of identity under capitalism.
