Transnational Yoga at Work

Discover the intricate dynamics of yoga in the modern workplace with Transnational Yoga at Work by Laurah E. Klepinger. Published in 2022 by Bloomsbury Publishing Plc, this compelling ethnography spans 284 pages and delves into the lives of wageworkers, yoga practitioners, and spiritual tourists within a transnational yoga institution. Klepinger presents a thought-provoking argument that the institution’s mission of peacebuilding often masks underlying issues of injustice and social inequality. This insightful exploration invites readers to reflect on the complexities of yoga as both a spiritual practice and a social phenomenon. Ideal for those interested in sociology, cultural studies, and the intersection of wellness and labor, this book is a must-read for anyone looking to understand the broader implications of yoga in contemporary society.
