Lost-Time Injury Rates: A Marxist Critique of Workers' Compensation Systems: Studies in Critical Social Sciences / New Scholarship in Political Economy, cartea 216/17
Autor Rodrigo Finkelsteinen Limba Engleză Hardback – 13 apr 2022
The central argument of this critique can be stated as follows: grounded in the capitalist mode of production, injury rates constitute a historical social relation that, by taking the semblance of inductive indicators, conceal specific capitalist relations that bring about the exchange and distribution of lost labour power among capitalists and wage labourers.
