N2 - This article is part of an internationally coordinated themed collection on 'labour conflict, forms of organisation, and class' exploring important questions. How can we explain the interplay of capital, the state, and the international order, in defining the persistence of labour conflict in changing historical and political-economic contexts? How have the economic, social, and technological transformations precipitated by the recent pandemic shaped the expression of work-related conflict? As part of a response to these main questions, the author and contributors of this collection conceptualise labour conflict and collective action in broader class analysis and examine the combined effect of state policies, migration, and digital innovation on contemporary labour politics. This article, drawing on insights from Marxist-oriented interdisciplinary approaches and feminist theories, seeks to suggest approaches to future studies on class, labour conflict, and workers' organisation.https://www.cambridge.org/core/journals/the-economic-and-labour-relations-review/article/class-labour-conflict-and-workers-organisation/87FE7306C19E45C4682080C7CE80B184
