In recent decades, labour and community activists have been engaging in living wage campaigns and efforts to establish or raise minimum wages in the US, Canada, the UK, and increasingly, other parts of the world. In this talk, Stephanie Luce will provide the background of the higher wages movement in the US, situating it in the context of the global economy and wage campaigns in other countries.
Stephanie Luce is Professor of Labor Studies at the Joseph S. Murphy Institute for Worker Education at The City University of New York. Best known for her research on living wage campaigns and movements, her current research focuses on globalization and labour standards, labour-community coalitions, and regional labour markets. She is the author of "Fighting for a Living Wage," and most recently, "Labor Movements: Global Perspectives."
This is the 2015 annual Gideon Rosenbluth Memorial Lecture co-presented by the Canadian Centre for Policy Alternatives and UBC's Vancouver School of Economics.
