[Commlist] New book: Raising Class Consciousness: Labor Movements and Communication Power in the Information Age

Gino Canella is pleased to share the release of a new edited volume, 
/Raising Class Consciousness: Labor Movements and Communication Power in 
the Information Age/ (Palgrave). It can be accessed here: 
https://link.springer.com/book/10.1007/978-3-032-02238-7 
<https://link.springer.com/book/10.1007/978-3-032-02238-7>.

The book offers critical and international perspectives on the political 
economy of media. It reviews how labor movements have leveraged various 
 communication mediums to organize and reclaim their agency during 
moments of technological disruption. The authors argue that the adoption 
and implementation of new technologies are political processes shaped by 
economic incentives, worker organizing, and state intervention.

Gino Canella is grateful to the contributors who shared original case 
studies, archival research, and theoretical analyses. As algorithms and 
artificial intelligence deepen worker precarity, fragment workplaces and 
reinforce echo chambers, their studies offer needed perspective.
