"The injustices experienced by women homeworkers across the globe are shockingly familiar, systemic and exploitative. Importantly this book analyses the problem and takes us to the powerful change that is possible through homeworkers collectively organising."
Michele ONeil President of Australian Council of Trade Unions
"This is a very important and timely book, drawing together the authors collective experience of research and activism on homeworkers. It highlights the lack of recognition or rights of homeworkers despite their important commercial contribution, and argues forcefully for gender justice. A must read for anyone interested in homeworkers."
Stephanie Barientos, Professor of Global Development University of Manchester, a.barrientos@manchester.ac.uk
"Attentive to patriarchy and capitalism, informal economies and global supply chains, and the material and ideological components of neoliberalism, these activist scholars wield a robust gender justice framework to expose the harms of exploitative homework. Delaney, Burchielli, Marshall, and Tate unmask the making of invisibility and uncover the lives and labors of women whose dwellings have turned into workplaces. But they do more: in analyzing strategies that have worked and those which have not, they offer roadmaps to achieving rights, recognition, redistribution, and a larger social justice."
Eileen Boris, Hull Professor and Distinguished Professor of Feminist Studies, University of California, Santa Barbara
