Guy Standing is a Bri.sh economist who has developed the term “precariat” to talk about part of the workforce today, a part that is characterized by job insecurity and loss of iden.ty and control. Read the aHached transcrip.on of his presenta.on about the changes in the workforce over the past 70 years. Using three (3) of the readings/videos, argue that Standing’s descrip.on of the new economy is either accurate orinaccurate. If you use readings/videos from older than 70 years ago, be sure to make a compara.ve analysis. Use specific examples from the readings to support your analysis. Quota.ons are best if possible

Hence, as she states, "I won't give up this job as long as I'm able to do it." (Terkel 395).
