Working in Restructured Workplaces: Challenges and New Directions for the Sociology of Work
Autor Daniel B. Cornfield, Karen E. Campbell, Holly J. McCammonen Limba Engleză Electronic book text – 2 iul 2012
The editors introduce a new concept of `workplace restructuring' to broaden your perspective and then assess implications for workers and their lives. The chapters address four major themes:
·reconfiguring workplace status hierarchies
·casualization of employment relationships
·restructuring and worker marginalization
·comparative labor responses to global restructuring.
The last two chapters chart new research agendas on the boundaries and durability of workplace restructuring.
