A critical term for how precarization—the spread of unstable, contingent, insecure work—functions as an authoritarian mechanism. Precarious workers cannot afford to dissent, to organize, or to demand rights. The threat of losing one’s livelihood is the most effective discipline: it turns workers against each other, forces compliance, and eliminates resistance. Authoritarian precarization is rule by fear of falling, where insecurity is not a bug but a feature—a quiet, economic authoritarianism.
