Labour and technology: Reflecting on a century of debate in the International Labour Review

Debra Howcroft and Jill Rubery

International Labour Review, 2021, vol. 160, issue 4, e32-e42

Abstract: The aim of this Centenary Issue is to assess a century of debates about the relationships between labour and technology as reflected in various relevant articles in the International Labour Review. The recent wave of interest in sociotechnical change and its implications for the future of work has led numerous commentators to claim that we are on the brink of unprecedented and seismic change. The 14 articles selected for this issue were published between 1925 and 2020 and provide a timely reflection on foundational debates that continue to resonate today.
