How Globalization Has Impacted Labor

How Globalization Has Impacted Labor

by Seymour Spilerman (Sociology)

This essay outlines the features of globalization in the current era and indicates how
conceptualizations of this process differ from the related formulations of the Annales School and of
World Systems Analysis. The main theme of the paper is then developed, namely an assessment of the
ways that globalization has impacted the organization of work and the structure of employment
careers. This assessment is based on results from a variety of recent research studies, especially on
findings from the Globalife project.
