Description
Summary:<p class="first" id="d221519e115">This article introduces this special issue of <i>Work Organisation, Labour and Globalisation</i> on logistics. First of all, it furnishes a brief genealogy of logistics in the modern era. Then, it frames some of the main issues in current critical debates on logistics. Finally, it presents the contents of the special issue in detail, connecting them with more general attempts to develop a ‘logistical gaze’ as a methodological perspective on the different and multiple transformations of contemporary capitalism. </p>
