By now we’re all too familiar with working from home, but it’s far from a new phenomenon. In this episode of The Not-so-new Normal, Boston University Masters Journalism Student Katharine Swindells speaks to Frances Holliss, professor of Architecture at London Metropolitan University and Director of the Workhome Project and Ursula Huws, Professor of Labour and Globalisation at the University of Hertfordshire, about the origins of flexible working, its gendered history, and how it changes the power dynamic between employer and employee.

Over the past year, we’ve seen more than ever that many of the jobs most essential to keeping our society running are also paid the least. In this episode of The Not-so-new Normal, Boston University Masters Journalism Student Katharine Swindells speaks to Ellen Ruppel Shell, journalist and professor at Boston University, and Dr. Bob Forrant, professor of Labor History at University of Massachusetts Lowell, @UMassLowell about the Bread and Roses strike of 1912, the minimum wage, and how we really value work.

We say we “spend time” or “save time.” But when did work become so tied to the clock? In this episode of The Not-so-new Normal, Boston University Masters Journalism Student Katharine Swindells speaks to Benjamin Kline Hunnicutt, historian at the University of Iowa and Nelson Lichtenstein, Historian and Director of the Center for the Study of Work, Labor, and Democracy at the University of California Santa Barbara, about the 1930s Kellogg's experiment with the 6-hour workday, and what we really mean when we talk about productivity.
