Soft cover. Zustand: Very Good. There are ten lines underlined on page 118-119; I could find no other underlining in the book. No highlighting, no bookplates, no owner names, not ex-libris, no remainder marks, no foxing. There is some wear on the outer corners and a very small fold on the last several pages at the lower outer ed…ge. Rest of the book is clean & binding is tight. This work emphasizes the difficulty with the new world order of globalization and the good times ideology that we are continually bombarded with. A very serviceable copy.

Paperback. Zustand: New. The global financial and industrial turmoil of recent years has once more brought the crisis-prone nature of the capitalist system to the forefront. In the context of economic stagnation and the retreat of working-class organizations, the rich and powerful around the world have redoubled their attack on…the poor through neoliberal policies and austerity measures.In The Servant State, McCormack and Workman explore Canada's experience through the "age of austerity" and highlight how this experience has been shaped by the exigencies of capitalist development and the catalyzing role of the Canadian state. The analytical standpoint is not that of the oppressed per se, but rather that of capitalism as a whole. They share the condemnation of the capitalist establishment, are appalled by the greed and avarice of the ruling elite and despair at the obscenities of the age; however, the critical spirit of their study is imbued less with a mood of indignation and more with assumptions and sensitivities about the inner tendencies of capitalism and the obliging role of the state. The struggle against contemporary excess and horror, they argue, must be framed with reference to the immuring tendencies of the capitalist order of things.

Paperback. Zustand: New. "If you're in my way I'm walking." This arrogant statement by former Prime Minister Jean Chrétien on the occasion of his physical altercation with a protester in Hull, Quebec in the mid-1990s symbolizes the spirit of the relentless drive of capital to rewrite the historical compromise reached with workin…g people after World War II. This early post-war compromise-sometimes referred to as the Fordist Compact-was associated with improving wages and rising living standards for working people. But in recent decades those achievements of the working class are being deliberately rolled back. Workman surveys many features of this experience: changing public perceptions of working life, the deregulation of labour law, the decline in unionization rates, the eclipse of union militancy, the stagnation of real wages, the disproportionate absorption of women into the low-wage sphere and the dismantling of social policy. He demonstrates the unravelling of the post-war compact and its replacement with a far more ex-ploitative relationship between capital and labour. He also points to the decline of the Canadian left and its inability to counter the capitalist onslaught effectively. Nevertheless, there are reasons to be hopeful. Workman calls for a rebuilding of the left through the restoration of left culture. To do this he says that the left must "quit politics," work to promote the collective memory of working-class achievements, create venues to listen to working people in today's economy, reject nationalism outright and encourage the labour movement to exploit its disruptive capacity. This revitalized left will form the basis of a deepening social critique, the political lessons of which will prove to be invaluable for working people in the long run.
