Book Synopsis
Examines the seismic changes confronting media workers in an age of globalization and corporate conglomeration. This anthology peeks behind the hype and supposed glamor of screen media industries to reveal the intensifying pressures and challenges confronting actors, editors, electricians, and others.

Trade Review
“The current volume is overdue, because it not only assumes the rise of the worldwide precariat, but it also scrutinizes vastly different cultural practices, many of which have not received critical attention in any depth…. Readers of this volume will nonetheless encounter stimulating rehearsals of these new modes of creative precarity.” * Labor: Studies in Working-Class History *
