Description

This Routledge academic volume explores the reality of informal paid work in developed nations, examining activities like babysitting, gardening, construction and financial consulting that are licit yet unreported to government authorities. The book challenges conventional economic theory by questioning the assumption that informal work inevitably disappears as capitalist markets expand globally. It presents both mainstream and heterodox economic perspectives, offering critical analysis of how scholars traditionally view informal economic activity as a pre-modern form of exchange. Part of the Routledge Advances in Heterodox Economics series, this work provides essential insights into the persistence and significance of informal labour in contemporary developed economies, bridging gaps between theoretical frameworks and real-world economic practices.

Key Features

Challenges mainstream and heterodox economic assumptions about the inevitable formalisation of goods and labour markets.
