Are there any books out there that tackle the workers' rights ideology from a modern perspective?

There are no rights. Marx refuted the very concept of it. Workers should act in self-interest, as should the bourgeoisie. "muh rights" are idealistic spooks that aren't tangible.

dude get a job.
get a blue collar job
start talking about commie shit at lunch after you have been there a few weeks, watch how quickly "the workers" tell you to shut-up and call you a fag. heck you might loose your job.

the ideals of Marx stop working once the workers got paid......this is not industrial revolution times where you scraped by but worked 6 days in a row for 12 hours a day.......
poor and homeless people choose to be that.

Yes, but from a modern perspective, all of them will be considered problematic if they don't include some chapters on intersectionality and trans rites.

pretty much what this guy said, the arts community and (mostly affluent) students are the only ones pushing these labour conversations. The irony is not lost on the working class.

Worker's rights from a modern perspective? No, because the system is pretty stable(outside America) and workers are content with what they're getting for most parts, also union stuff is really bureaucratizedin European countries.
If you mean anti-capitalist stuff then there is a lot, but there isn't much writing on how to establish a communist project because it just doesn't have much traction outside of certain pockets of culture.

Marx asserted that the end of capitalism is certain inevitable to its inherent contradictions, he did this in contrast to the people of his times who tried to justify Socialism through morality and ethics.

>emotions and morality and religions and ideologies are irrelevant, history is driven by material means
>uhhh these people are evil because they are greedy
This core error will never be resolved, because Marxism claims to transcend morality while in fact merely being a restatement of it.

It could just be replaced by another oppressive system of a minority exploiting everyone else. Just like every other time kek
