The future of work
Source: Newsweek
Jan 30th, 2006 (Adapted)
Many of the rich world’s notions about old age are dying.
While the streamlining effects of international competition
are focusing attention on the need to create and keep good
jobs, those fears will eventually give way to worries about
the growing shortage of young workers. One unavoidable
solution: putting older people back to work, whether they
like it or not. Indeed, cutting-edge European economies
like those of Finland and Denmark have already raised
their retirement ages, reversing the postwar trend toward
ever-earlier retirement. Others are under severe pressure
to follow suit, as both the European Commission and the
Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development
(OECD) have recently warned their members that their
future prosperity depends on a growing contribution from
the elderly.
This erosion of one of the cornerstones of the good
life – relaxed golden years – has not gone unremarked. In
the last year, Belgium, Italy and France have all been hit
with massive protests against pension reforms that would,
among other things, have raised the retirement age.

The global union
Source: Newsweek Special Edition
Dec 2005 – Feb 2006 (Adapted)
What would a global union look like? Think more
corporate partnership than class struggle. Today, capital is
global and employers are global. Companies, not countries,
make the rules. To survive, unions need to find their niche.
Global companies are going to need an organization that,
in a sense, will manage their labor and protect workers’
rights. A global union would set standard practices and
codes of conduct – perhaps even minimum wages and
work hours.
My critics in the labor movement cringe when I use
words like “partnership” and “value added”. The reality is
that unions need to add value or corporations will ignore
us. If we want an equitable stake in the company, we need
to define what our goals are. We can’t just demand a raise
in pay without offering an incentive to the company. We’re
already far behind multinational corporations in the global
game. We made the mistake of transferring the industrial
model of unionism of the last country to the 21st. We lost
market share: in 1960, one in four workers was in a union;
now it’s one in 12.

The perils of prosperity
Source: The Economist
April 27th 2006 (Adapted)
Midway through the first decade of the 21st century,
economic growth is pulling millions out of poverty. Growth,
so devoutly desired yet often so elusive for developing
countries, is occurring in China and India on a heroic scale.
Yet once affluence is achieved, its value is often questioned.
In the 1960s and 1970s, economists started worrying about
environmental and social limits to growth. Now Avner Offer,
professor of economic history at Oxford University, has
added a weighty new critique to this tradition.
“The Challenge of Affluence” accepts that the
populations of poor countries gain from growth, but says
that the main benefits of prosperity are achieved at quite
modest levels. Its central thesis is that rising living standards
in Britain and America have engendered impatience, which
undermines well-being. The fruits of affluence are bitter
ones, and include addiction, obesity, family breakdown and
mental disorders.
