本文涉及电视和电影行业对无偿工作的抵制。它概述了英国电视行业开展的一项著名且成功的反对无偿劳动的运动，并讨论了电影行业的类似运动如何遇到了更大的反对。然后报告了一项调查，该调查旨在调查在这些活动中观察到的两个行业的态度差异。在确认电影行业工人比电视行业工人更愿意接受无偿劳动的同时，调查还揭示了一个更显着的特征：那些在这两个行业工作时间较长的人对无偿劳动的看法远不如相对新人。文章讨论了造成这种情况的可能原因，例如对年轻工人的自利和利他态度；它还探讨了对未来工作条件的一些影响，以及激进主义和团结在抵制文化产业中现有劳资关系最糟糕方面的作用。
This article concerns resistance to unpaid work in the television and film industries. It outlines one notable and successful campaign against unpaid labour which was conducted in the UK television industry and discusses how a similar campaign in the film industry met much greater opposition. It then reports on a survey that was conducted in order to investigate the seeming differences in attitudes in the two industries observed during these campaigns. While confirming that workers in the film industry are more prepared to accept unpaid labour than television workers, the survey also revealed a more striking characteristic: those who have worked longer in either sector view unpaid labour considerably less favourably than relative newcomers. The article discusses possible reasons for this, such as self-interest and altruistic attitudes towards younger workers; it also explores some implications for future working conditions, and for the role of activism and solidarity in resisting the worst aspects of existing labour relations in the cultural industries.
