| description | Sitting at pivotal points of globalized economies, workers in logistical chokepoints such as ports and airports should have a lot of negotiating power. Examining the spatial-historical narrative of logistics in Portugal and Brazil, this book asks why working conditions in ports and airports are still predominantly precarious. Using her own field research and qualitative studies, Anne Engelhardt analyses the work and lives of workers along materialist theoretical approaches to social reproduction, the metabolic rift, the state, and the body. |

Die Beschäftigten an logistischen Engpässen wie Häfen und Flughäfen, die sich an Dreh- und Angelpunkten der globalisierten Wirtschaft befinden, sollten über eine große Verhandlungsmacht verfügen. Dieses Buch untersucht die räumlich-historische Geschichte der Logistik in Portugal und Brasilien und fragt, warum die Arbeitsbedingungen in Häfen und Flughäfen immer noch überwiegend prekär sind. Anhand eigener Feldforschung und qualitativer Studien analysiert Anne Engelhardt die Arbeit und das Leben der Arbeiter entlang materialistischer Theorieansätze zur sozialen Reproduktion, zum metabolischen Riss, zum Staat und zum Körper. 2025-08-13T05:03:45Z 2025-08-13T05:03:45Z 2025-08-12T07:39:33Z 2025 book https://library.oapen.org/handle/20.500.12657/105408 9783966651028 https://directory.doabooks.org/handle/20.500.12854/165849 eng open access image/jpeg Attribution 4.0 International https://library.oapen.org/bitstream/20.500.12657/105408/1/9783966658911.pdf Verlag Barbara Budrich Budrich Academic Press 10.3224/96665102 10.3224/96665102 d4b2aab6-f180-4fdf-9918-e8e7b91d0950 9783966651028 Budrich Academic Press 346 open access |
