A phenomenal book that shows how the balance of power between workers and employers shapes the capacity to reform labor law in Chile. While literature on labor movements and labor law reform tends to focus on the worker side of the equation, Pérez Ahumada argues that it is not just the strength and weakness of unions’ associational power that shapes labor law reform but also that of employers. This is a significant contribution to theorizations of the capitalist state, agency, and worker power.
