title = "Dynamics of precarity among {\textquoteleft}new migrants{\textquoteright}: exploring the worker-capital relation through mobilities and mobility power",
abstract = "This article conceptualises the role of mobilities within precarious working and living conditions, drawing on qualitative analysis of interviews (n=52) and a policy seminar (n=50) in North-East England. It focuses on refugees, asylum seekers, and Eastern European EU migrants, as policy-constructed groups that have been identified as disproportionately concentrated in precarious work. The article develops three {\textquoteleft}dynamics of precarity{\textquoteright}, defined as {\textquoteleft}surplus{\textquoteright}, {\textquoteleft}rooted{\textquoteright}, and {\textquoteleft}hyper-flexible{\textquoteright}, to conceptualise distinct ways of moving that represent significant variations in the form that precarity takes. The article concludes that understanding precarity through mobilities can identify points of connection among today{\textquoteright}s increasingly heterogeneous working class.",
