Single spaced.
12 point Times New Roman font, one inch margins.
Three numbered pages including references (text must reach page three).
At least two direct quotes with proper ASA-format citations (quotes must be embedded in

Specific guidelines:
Compare the managed (1945-1970s) and neoliberal (1980-today) globalization eras in terms of
their effects on the world of labor.
–
First, lay out some of the distinctive elements of work under capitalism itself – something
common to both eras.
o
How is work organized under capitalism compared to pre-modern eras? Describe
how wage labor works and why class conflict is a constant issue.
–
What kind of distributional policy was the norm in each era?
o
Give some details on the “policy bundle” that became the norm in each era. What
role did states play in each era – did they support one side or the other in the
conflict between capital and labor?
–
Compare the state of between-country inequality in each era.
o
Did it increase or decrease? Relate this to capital-labor relations in each era – did
changes in between-country inequality have anything to do with the global “arms
race” between capital and labor?
–
Compare the state of within-country inequality in each era.
o
Did it increase or decrease, and where? Relate this to capital-labor relations in
each era – did changes in within-country inequality have anything to do with the
“style” of globalization in each era? Did they have anything to do with the
balance of power between capital and labor in various “battlefields” as described
by Sackrey, Scheider, and Knoedler?
–
an additional “layer” of history: the global “arms race” between capital
and labor.
o
Briefly describe how this process works. Explain why and how capital uses the
“spatial fix.” Given what we know about the policy bundles of the managed and
neoliberal era, which era makes it easier for capital to use the spatial fix to escape
conflict? Why?
