"With the capitalist system demonstrably unfair, irrational, and prone to intermittent crises, it is useful, indeed refreshing, to see a Marxist analysis of globalization and its effects on working people. Fred Goldstein's LOW-WAGE CAPITALISM does exactly that ."

- Howard Zinn

"Only by understanding capitalism and monopoly capitalism
can we understand the root causes of global poverty and migration."

- Berna Ellorin,
Secretary-General, BAYAN USA

"Low-Wage Capitalism is truly outstanding, starting with the first sentence in Chap. 1. Hits us like a body punch, and provides the perfect context for what we all need to know about the evolving conditions of workers and their struggles. I know of no book in this area that covers so much, so clearly and - when it comes to what is to be done - so convincingly. Deserves the widest readership.

- Bertell Ollman,
professor of politics at NYU

"Low wage capitalism by Fred Goldstein is a most timely and important work, as the working class prepares for a ¨fightback¨ during the greatest crisis of capitalism since the great depression."

- Clarence Thomas,
ILWU Local 10 and co chair of the Million Worker March Movement

"Lucid, deeply accurate and informative, as relevant and useful as a book can be, Goldstein offers a compelling analysis of the exploitative world of global corporate capitalism."

- Michael Parenti,
author of Contrary Notions

“Patriarchal prejudice serves capitalism in two ways: it keeps the whole working class divided, and it holds down wages for women and for lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgendered workers. Low-Wage Capitalism shows the necessity and the great potential for solidarity among all the low-wage workers of the world.”
