Journal of Contemporary European Studies
"A really valuable book which will remind everyone that our side
still has power - if we use it."
International Socialism
"A well structured and attractively written text that represents
a fine contribution to the analysis of contemporary development in
the world of work."
Work, Employment and Society
"Doogan's New Capitalism? presents a challenging new
vision of current and future connections between employees and
employers. New Capitalism? provides a theoretically
insightful and empirically informed critique of visions focused on
the increasing precariousness of employment. A must read for
scholars and students of work, economy and polity."
Randy Hodson, Ohio State University
"Reality is more intelligent than the prophets of “New
capitalism”, who ask for radically deregulated financial,
product and labour markets. With the present collapse, public
bailout and re-regulation of the financial system, Doogan’s
findings, that long term jobs have continued to grow as a
productive asset for the economy, are particular welcome."
Peter Auer, Chief of the Employment Analysis and Research
Unit, ILO, Geneva
"Kevin Doogan annihilates conventional wisdom on labour markets.
The extraordinary wealth and depth of data which he has amassed
will make readers wonder why so many were misled for so long. But
Doogan has an answer for this too. The arrival of this book is a
seismic event which will send shockwaves in every political
direction."
Ralph Fevre, Cardiff University School of Social
Sciences
"An excellent book."
Socialist Review
