Liberalization of trade and investment has added two billion people to world labour supply and brought workers everywhere into intense competition with each other. Under orthodox neoliberal and neoclassical approaches free trade and open investment should benefit all countries and lead to convergence. However considerable differences in wages and working hours exist between workers of the Global North and those of the Global South. The organising question for the thesis is why workers in different countries but the same industries get different wages. Empirical evidence reviewed in the thesis shows that productivity does not explain these wage differences and that workers in some parts of the South are more productive than workers in the North. Part of the thesis examines the usefulness of explanations drawn from Marxist, institutionalist and global commodity chain approaches. There is a long established argument in Marxist and neo-Marxist writings that differences between North and South result from imperialism and the exercise of power. This is the starting point to review ways of understanding divisions between workers as the outcome of a global class structure. In turn, a fault line is postulated between productive and unproductive labour that largely replicates the division between the Global North and the Global South. Workers and their organizations need shared actions if they are to resist global competition and wage disparities. Solidarity has been the clarion of progressive movements from the Internationals of the early C19th through to the current Global Unions and International Confederation of Trade Unions (ICTU). The thesis examines how nationalism and particular interests have undermined solidarity and reviews the major implications for current efforts to establish and advance a global labour position. 4 Key agents discussed are the more established agencies of the ICTU and International Labour Organization and the provisional groupings built around social movement unionism and the World Social Forum. Key Words Labour, Political Economy, Global South, Third World, Globalization, Marxism, Unequal Exchange, Global Commodity Chains. Statement of Original Authorship The work contained in this thesis has not been previously submitted to meet requirements for an award at this or any other higher education institution.

Signature Date 17 March 2011 5 Acknowledgements To those many people who have inspired and supported me whether in the undertaking of this project or long before it began, I express my sincerest gratitude. For their unique and instrumental role in support of me, I feel particularly fortunate to thank and to highlight some people without whose unique and instrumental contributions I feel I could not have even attempted this project. Firstly, I would like to thank my parents, Barbara and Dennis, for the sacrifices they have made for me and for always encouraging and motivating me to fulfil my potential in each and every thing I do. Secondly, I would like to thank my wife Prerna, for being the custodian of my sanity, for her understanding and friendship, and for her steadfast belief in me. Last but not least, I would like to thank my supervisor and mentor, Howard Guille, for encouraging and nurturing me as a scholar. In difficult circumstances, I feel he has far surpassed what is expected of a supervisor. To me, he will always remain a role model and an ideal example of what it means to be an educator. 6 Chapter 1 – Introduction The liberalization of trade and investment over the last two to three decades has effectively added two billion people to the world labour supply principally in China, Russia, Eastern Europe, Brazil and Argentina. Simultaneously countries in the Global South have become the main source of a range of manufactures especially automobiles and automobile parts, clothing and textiles, footwear, toys and domestic whitegoods. The sheer scale of these changes is bringing workers in different countries into more intense competition with each other. As noted by Freeman, while the global labour supply has doubled1, the new entries to the global labour market brought a relatively small amount of capital to the global supply2. This has led to an increase in the ratio between the supply of labour and the supply of capital leading to intense competition3. This is occurring in both manufacturing and services and while the notion of a global ‘race to the bottom’ may be over- simplified, there is little doubt that global employers and investors are able to play off national workforces and national labour unions against each other. As noted by the United Nations Industrial Development Organization: “Between 1975 and 2000, rich countries were losing their global share of employment in manufacturing; 24 of the 28 manufacturing sectors in the OECD countries registered sharp declines in their global share of employment. Fast-growing middle-income countries also lost significant employment shares in such mass manufacturing industries as textiles, 1 Freeman, Richard. (2006).

The present study in economics attempts to summarize the status of various facets of economics teaching in Western Europe in the early 1970's. It was compiled from a wide range of information sources, including syllabuses of member countries' programs, a series of questionnaires, meetings of economics experts, personal interviews with teachers and administrators, and the study of background literature. The chapter topics include the role of economics in education; the aims of teaching economics; the structure of the syllabus; economics-within an educational strategy; secondary termination and university entrance; methods of teaching economics; training teachers; assessing the candidates; and a challenging future for economics.

  • Women's Liberation: Seeing the Revolution Clearly
    Sara M. EvanS Women’s Liberation: Seeing the Revolution Clearly Approximately fifty members of the five Chicago radical women’s groups met on Saturday, May 18, 1968, to hold a citywide conference. The main purposes of the conference were to create and strengthen ties among groups and individuals, to generate a heightened sense of common history and purpose, and to provoke imaginative pro- grammatic ideas and plans. In other words, the conference was an early step in the process of movement building. —Voice of Women’s Liberation Movement, June 19681 EvEry account of thE rE-EmErgEncE of feminism in the United States in the late twentieth century notes the ferment that took place in 1967 and 1968. The five groups meeting in Chicago in May 1968 had, for instance, flowered from what had been a single Chicago group just a year before. By the time of the conference in 1968, activists who used the term “women’s liberation” understood themselves to be building a movement. Embedded in national networks of student, civil rights, and antiwar movements, these activists were aware that sister women’s liber- ation groups were rapidly forming across the country. Yet despite some 1. Sarah Boyte (now Sara M. Evans, the author of this article), “from Chicago,” Voice of the Women’s Liberation Movement, June 1968, p. 7.

  • The New Left
    1 The New Left Key Political Leaders: Tom Hayden, Abbie Hoffman, and Jerry Rubin (US); Daniel Cohn-Bendit (France); Rudi Dutschke, Joschka Fischer, Andreas Baader, Ulrike Meinhof, and Fritz Teufel (Germany). Key Intellectuals Associated with the New Left: Herbert Marcuse, Wilhelm Reich, Alan Sillitoe, Guy Debord, E. P. Thompson, Erik Hobsbawm, Raymond Williams, Stuart Hall, Ernst Bloch, C. Wright Mills, Marshall Berman, Isaac Deutscher, Erich Fromm. Rejection of the Old Left. The New Left represented a break with the orthodox Leninist-Stalinist communist movement of the 1920s and 1930s that had reached the apogee of its influence in the years right after World War II. Already in the 1940s, a few key communist intellectuals had come out against Soviet Communism as practiced under Stalin most famously, Arthur Koestler (whose Darkness at Noon was published in 1940) and George Orwell (as suggested by his 1945 novel Animal Farm and the 1949 novel 1984). The biggest blow to the influence of international communism came in 1956, when the Soviet invasion of Hungary made it increasingly difficult for communists to claim that communism had popular support in Eastern Europe. In the same year, the Soviet General Secretary Nikita Khrushchev had given his famous Cult of Personality Speech in which he denounced Stalin for his excessive use of violence and police power since the 1930s. Together, these events made many Leftists accept the fact that somewhere communism had taken a wrong turn in the Soviet Union. Marxist Revisionism. A few intellectuals rejected Marxism all together, but an influential group of Leftists tried to recapture the original intent of Karl Marx.

  • A Dissertation Entitled Yoshimoto Taka'aki's Karl Marx
    A Dissertation Entitled Yoshimoto Taka’aki’s Karl Marx: Translation and Commentary By Manuel Yang Submitted as partial fulfillment for the requirements for The Doctor of Philosophy in History ________________________ Adviser: Dr. Peter Linebaugh ________________________ Dr. Alfred Cave ________________________ Dr. Harry Cleaver ________________________ Dr. Michael Jakobson ________________________ Graduate School The University of Toledo August 2008 An Abstract of Yoshimoto Taka’aki’s Karl Marx: Translation and Commentary Manuel Yang Submitted as partial fulfillment for the requirements for The Doctor of Philosophy in History The University of Toledo August 2008 In 1966 the Japanese New Left thinker Yoshimoto Taka’aki published his seminal book on Karl Marx. The originality of this overview of Marx’s ideas and life lay in Yoshimoto’s stress on the young Marx’s theory of alienation as an outgrowth of a unique philosophy of nature, whose roots went back to the latter’s doctoral dissertation. It echoed Yoshimoto’s own reformulation of “alienation” (and Marx’s labor theory of value) as key concept in his theory of literary language (What is Beauty in Language), which he had just completed in 1965, and extended his argument -- ongoing from the mid-1950s -- with Japanese Marxism over questions of literature, politics, and culture. His extraction of the theme of “communal illusion” from the early Marx foregrounds his second major theoretical work of the decade, Communal Illusion, which he started to serialize in 1966 and completed in 1968, and outlines an important theoretical closure to the existential, political, and intellectual struggles he had waged since the end of the ii Pacific War.
