Zusammenfassung:The Resistible Commodification of Labour The article argues that the renewed commodification of labour – the primary aim of neo-liberal policies aimed at the destruction of long-established and hard-won social rights – has played a major role in the commodification of a growing number of social practices. The process of commodification is examined by way of a number of concepts drawn from the Marxist tradition, which are then reappropriated within the current phase of the neo-liberal counter-reform. The article concludes by way of an examination of this process in relation to the issues raised by the anti-globalisation movement and, more specifically, from the standpoint of the critique of commodity put forward by Naomi Klein.
