David Jacobs writes about business ethics, labor unions and management theory, often examining how ideas like Catholic social thought, pragmatism, and Marxist theory relate to organizations and workplace democracy. Much of the recent output consists of book reviews covering topics such as labor law, executive pay, business ethics, and the philosophy of management, alongside occasional empirical pieces on unionism, gender equality, and public opinion surveys in African countries.
Publication output rose to a peak around 2019-2020 but has become sparse and irregular since 2021, averaging less than one publication per year over the last five years.
