Bilgi Endüstrilerinde Emeğin Yöndeşmesi

Bu makale, yoğunlaşmaların arttığı ve yeni iletişim ve enformasyon teknolojileri ile küresel medyanın yaygınlaştığı günümüzde, Kuzey Amerikalı bilgi işçileri örneğinden hareket ederek, emeğin verdiği mücadele ve aradığı yeni yollar üzerinde durmaktadır. Küreselleşmenin kendini yeniden üretebilmesi için gerekli düşünceleri üreten ve dağıtan iletişim sektöründe, böyle bir gelişmenin olduğu ve önemi tartışıldı. Bunu yaparken, enformasyon ve iletişimin üretim ve dağıtımını yapanların kendi çıkarlarını ve toplumda demokratik iletişim sistemini amaçlayanların çıkarlarını savunmak için örgütlenme hakları üzerinde tartışma sundu.
