Review The Industrial Craftsworker: Skill, Managerial Stategies and Workplace Relationships (Employment and Work Relations in Context) / Routledge:This study of skilled workers in industry analyzes the linked and often apparently contradictory relationships between craftsmen and managers and craftsmen and non-skilled workers. It considers the alternative views of the craftsman as a status-striving "labor aristocrat" within the workforce and as a focus for radical and militant challenge to management, and shows how craft skill and craft control are an important dynamic force for technological and organizational development in industry, as well as an influence on working class development in a broader sense. The argument is illustrated by two case studies - of the automobile industry in the US, focusing on the role of the craftsman and of the UK motor industry (the Rover plant at Cowley).

Review The Body Impolitic: Artisans and Artifice in the Global Hierarchy of Value / University Of Chicago Press:The Body Impolitic is a critical study of tradition, not merely as an ornament of local and national heritage, but also as a millstone around the necks of those who are condemned to produce it. Michael Herzfeld takes us inside a rich variety of small-town Cretan artisans' workshops to show how apprentices are systematically thwarted into learning by stealth and guile. This harsh training reinforces a stereotype of artisans as rude and uncultured. Moreover, the same stereotypes that marginalize artisans locally also operate to marginalize Cretans within the Greek nation and Greece itself within the international community. What Herzfeld identifies as "the global hierarchy of value" thus frames the nation's ancient monuments and traditional handicrafts as evidence of incurable "backwardness. " Herzfeld's sensitive observations offer an intimately grounded way of understanding the effects of globalization and of one of its most visible offshoots, the heritage industry, on the lives of ordinary people in many parts of the world today.
