Synopsis

Patterns of Labour explores the interaction between the home, paid work, and the individual. It explores how social relations both shape and are shaped by the context in which they occur. In a detailed examination of the pottery industries in Britain and the United States over two centuries, Richard Whipp considers the far-reaching effects of industrialization, economic migration, changing notions of gender, and unionization. The author also remedies a major omission in the historical development of work. By using an industry that has seen great change, both technological and organisational, he provides a rich source of data on evolving industrial and social patterns.
