  1. National-neoliberalism. Politics, work and business in Romania

    National-neoliberalism. Politics, work and business in Romania

    Romania's economy is integrated into the global economy, a fact that brings about dependencies, but also enables development. In this episode, we’re speaking with Cornel Ban, a political economist who, using this disciplinary lens, can offer an analysis of international financial issues that are otherwise highly diverse and complex to delineate within local boundaries. Examining Baia Mare and the circumstances in which some people work and live prompts a necessary discussion about the shortcomings of capitalism, institutionalized racism, and the imperative need for effective public policies. The theme of adaptation and the formulation of strategies to address political and climate changes are also explored in this episode. Romania's prospects remain open, but it is imperative to act swiftly and contribute to altering the current situation, not only in the labor market but also in taxation and social policies, according to our guest. Cornel Ban is an associate professor of International Political economy at Copenhagen Business School. Prior to this he was a Reader at City University of London, assistant professor at Boston University and research fellow at Brown University in the United States. He wrote two books, two dozen articles, and book chapters on the politics of economic expertise, policy shifts in international financial institutions, and the politics of capitalist diversity in Brazil, Spain, Hungary and Romania. This episode is part of a series based on the research project "Precarious work and peripheral housing. The socio-economic practices of the Roma in Romania in the context of industrial relations and unequal territorial development", in short PRECWORK, with the financial support of Norwegian grants and UEFISCDI from Romania.

  2. Labour in the factory. Work to live or Live to work

    2023. 03. 20.

    Labour in the factory. Work to live or Live to work

    Factory work remains one of the most widespread forms of production. 22.3% of people employed in Romania in non-agricultural fields work in manufacturing production, i.e. in factories. The working conditions are often extremely demanding, and the pay is often the minimum wage. In the case of factory workers in Baia Mare, several dimensions overlap that place people in extremely vulnerable situations – the racism against Roma, poor living conditions due to lack of property, lack of access to education and health services and many others. In the current episode, we discuss what three-shift work means for the people producing our furniture, the precariousness and the consequences it has on workers' health. The discoveries made in the PRECWORK research project are impressive due to the interdisciplinary nature of the process. The complexity of labour in Romania is put in a special light that makes us glimpse the injustice and inequality that hides behind the right to work, a right that does not ensure the right to a decent life. Neda Deneva holds a PhD in sociology and social anthropology from the Central European University. Her work is situated at the intersection of transnational migration, labour regimes, social citizenship, and social reproduction in Eastern Europe. Her most recent research at Babes-Bolyai University within the project PRECWORK focuses on how reindustrialization processes in Romania transform the working and living conditions of Roma workers. She currently works as a postdoctoral researcher at SYNYO in Vienna. This episode is part of a series based on the research project "Precarious work and peripheral housing. The socio-economic practices of the Roma in Romania in the context of industrial relations and unequal territorial development", in short PRECWORK, with the financial support of Norwegian grants and UEFISCDI from Romania.
