Labour conflicts in the digital age offers a complete view of the new labour conflicts in the platform economy.

Call no: HQ799.2 P6R86

“The book examines the Millennial Generation from a comparative perspective, providing insight into the degree to which generational differences in political attitudes and behaviours transcend cultures and borders. The book looks at Millennial attitudes about family life, gender roles, institutions, politics, religion, lifestyle, and the future to better understand how or if governance will change under this generation and the degree of influence they currently wield in different countries.” — Publisher.
