520    Every working person in the United States asks the same 
       question, how secure is my job? For a generation, roughly 
       from 1945 to 1970, business and government leaders 
       embraced a vision of an American workforce rooted in 
       stability. But over the last fifty years, job security has
       cratered as the postwar institutions that insulated us 
       from volatility--big unions, big corporations, powerful 
       regulators--have been swept aside by a fervent belief in 
       "the market." Temp tracks the surprising transformation of
       an ethos which favored long-term investment in work (and 
       workers) to one promoting short-term returns. A series of 
       deliberate decisions preceded the digital revolution and 
       upended the longstanding understanding of what a 
       corporation, or a factory, or a shop, was meant to do. 
       Temp tells the story of the unmaking of American work 
       through the experiences of those on the inside: 
       consultants and executives, temps and office workers, line
       workers and migrant laborers. It begins in the sixties, 
       with economists, consultants, business and policy leaders 
       who began to shift the corporation from a provider of 
       goods and services to one whose sole purpose was to 
       maximize profit--an ideology that brought with it the risk
       -taking entrepreneur and the shareholder revolution and 
       changed the very definition of a corporation. With Temp, 
       Hyman explains one of the nation's most immediate crises. 
       Uber are not the cause of insecurity and inequality in our
       country, and neither is the rest of the gig economy. The 
       answer goes deeper than apps, further back than downsizing,
       and contests the most essential assumptions we have about 
       how our businesses should work
