Special Issue of QUALITATIVE SOCIOLOGY on “Constructing Workers”<\/p>\n
“Constructing Workers”: A special issue focused on efforts to organize workers in contingent labor contracts who are often not considered employees. Increasing numbers of workers fit this description, and both unions and community organizations have sought, in various efforts, to help
\nthem organize for rights and benefits due workers with employee status. How do these groups organize? With what models? With what resources? How do they construct “workers” in such a way as to make contingent workers and contingent work less contingent? How do workers see themselves and their work? We would be interested in articles dealing with any of the following topics, or other related ones.<\/p>\n
