Description

Explore the realities of modern media employment with Creative Labour: Media Work in Three Cultural Industries. Published by Routledge, this book investigates whether media roles are truly more creative than jobs in other sectors. By combining original research with a synthesis of existing studies, it provides a deep look into the professional lives of those working within the creative industries. This text examines the complex relationship between commerce and creativity, looking closely at how workers experience their roles. It addresses vital topics such as autonomy, self-realization, and the effects of emotional and affective labour. Readers will gain insight into the tensions of self-exploitation and alienation, as well as the ongoing search for what constitutes good work in a changing landscape. Whether you are studying sociology, anthropology, or media studies, this book offers a detailed analysis of the conditions and experiences of workers today. It serves as a major contribution to the understanding of media work and the social sciences.
