Abstract: The Precarity & Contingency book series publishes scholarship--broadly construed to include empirical (both quantitative and qualitative), historical, and critical/theoretical projects-that addresses precarious academic labor.While its focus is primarily on academic labor in higher education, it encourages projects that address other labor issues on campuses (including K-12) and/or precarity in labor sectors outside education.The series embraces new visions of and innovations in leadership in the academic environment that might more effectively address current labor crises.It also encourages projects that explore intersections of academic labor activism with other forms of activism, such as LGBTQ+, gender, race equality, ability/disability activism, and environmentalism, among others.The WAC Clearinghouse, University Press of Colorado, and the Colorado State University Center for the Study of Academic Labor are collaborating so that these books will be widely available through free digital distribution and lowcost print editions.The publishers and the series editors are committed to the principle that knowledge should freely circulate and have embraced the use of technology to support open access to scholarly work.
