What challenges do workers face in the global economy and how can they and their allies meet them? Essays in this special issue of Social Justice address aspects of this question through detailed case studies on the interface between global capitalism and neoliberalism as it affects workers in particular industries and countries. Authors discuss the social forces shaping the development of class-consciousness and strategies for resisting the exploitation and alienation of workers. To provide an interpretive context, the Editors review the literature on economic globalization and workers, with an emphasis on immigration and immigrant workers, as well as the impact of economic globalization and neoliberalism on income inequality.
