Ruben J. Garcia. Marginal
workers: how legal fault lines divide workers and leave them without
protection. New York University Press, 2012.
KF3464.G37 2012. Undocumented
and authorized immigrant laborers, female workers, workers of color, guest
workers, and unionized workers together compose an enormous and diverse part
of the labor force in America. In
Marginal Workers, Ruben J. Garcia demonstrates that when it comes to
these marginal workers, the sum of the law is less than its parts, and,
despite what appears to be a plethora of applicable statutes, marginal
workers are frequently lacking in protection. Throughout, Garcia argues for a
new paradigm in worker protection, one based on human freedom and rights, and
points to a number of examples in which marginal workers have organized for greater
justice on the job in spite of the weakness of the law. Peter Suber. Open Access. MIT
Press, 2012. Z286.O63S83
2012. The
Internet lets us share perfect copies of our work with a worldwide audience
at virtually no cost. We take advantage of this revolutionary opportunity
when we make our work “open access”: digital, online, free of charge, and
free of most copyright and licensing restrictions. In this concise
introduction, Peter Suber tells us what open access is and isn’t, how it
benefits authors and readers of research, how we pay for it, how it avoids
copyright problems, how it has moved from the periphery to the mainstream,
and what its future may hold. Peter Suber, director of the Harvard Open
Access Project, is widely considered the de facto leader of the worldwide
open access movement. Open Access distills a decade of his influential
writing and thinking about open access, creating an indispensable book on the
subject for researchers, librarians, administrators, publishers, and more. |
