"Work, Difference and Social Change" will discuss the nature of work and
the experience of workers in the context of political and technological change.
Binghamton's "New Directions in the Labor Process" conference, held in May,
1978, focused on debates in labor process theory inspired by the publication
of Harry Braverman's `Labor and Monopoly Capital´. That conference helped
define the research agenda of a generation. We expect this 20th Anniversary
Conference to do the same. We will examine the relationship between class,
gender, race and the organization of production. We will explore the challenges
and possibilities which confront labor as a social movement in a global economy.
Academics and activists are invited to join with Elaine Bernard, Edna Bonacich*,
Michael Burawoy*, Muto Ichiyo, David Noble*, Bryan Palmer*, James Rinehart*,
Richard Sharpe, Sid Shniad, David Stark*, Erik Olin Wright* and others as
we bridge research and day-to-day work experience.
*("New Directions in the Labor Process" Panelist)

workplace through the prisms of class, gender and race. All papers will be
