    Motion pictures are made, not mass produced, requiring a remarkable collection of skills, self-discipline, and sociality—all of which are sources of enormous pride among Hollywood’s craft and creative workers. The interviews collected here showcase the pleasures that attract people to careers in film and television. They also reflect critically on changes in the workplace brought about by corporate conglomeration and globalization. Rather than offer publicity-friendly anecdotes by marquee celebrities, Voices of Labor presents off-screen observations about the everyday realities of Global Hollywood. Ranging across job categories—from showrunner to make-up artist to location manager—this collection features voices of labor from Los Angeles, Atlanta, Prague, and Vancouver. Together they show how abstract concepts like conglomeration, financialization, and globalization are crucial tools for understanding contemporary Hollywood and for reflecting more generally on changes and challenges in the screen media workplace and our culture at large.

    New technologies drive productivity growth but the distribution of gains might be unequal and is mediated by labor market institutions. We study the role that organized labor plays in shielding incumbent workers from the potential negative consequences of automation. Combining German individual-level administrative records with information on plant-level robot adoption and the presence of works councils, a form of shop-floor worker representation, we find positive moderating effects of works councils on retention for incumbent workers during automation events. Separations for workers with replaceable task profiles are significantly reduced. When labor markets are tight and replacement costs are high for firms, incumbent workers become more valuable and the effects of works councils during automation events start to disappear. Older workers, who find it more challenging to reallocate to new employers, benefit the most from organized labor in terms of wages employment. Concerning mechanisms we find that robot-adopting plants with works councils employ not more but higher quality robots. They also provide more training during robot adoption and have higher productivity growth thereafter.
