要旨

The address situates the rise of “gig” work in the context of
a much longer-term trend toward more precarious forms of
employment. It explores the forces that are driving these
developments and discusses the problems they pose at both
the individual level and the national level. By situating the
United States in a comparative perspective, it identifies the
structural factors that exacerbate the problem of precarity and
intensify its effects in the American political economy.
