内容説明

Work Inequalities in the Crisis provides an in-depth overview of the effects of the crisis on inequalities in the world of work. It examines these inequalities multi-dimensionally, looking at employment, wages and incomes, working conditions and social dialogue. At the same time, it investigates whether the crisis may halt the progress made in Europe towards better quality jobs and working conditions. This book offers a unique combination of research, case studies and policy discussions. An assessment of national trends in 30 European countries precedes case studies of 14 of them, in which noted European specialists report on individual enterprises or sectors. The volume's survey of national- and local-level policy solutions contributes to identifying those responses that strengthen economic competitiveness, preserve social cohesion and do not deepen inequalities. This timely resource will be of particular interest to academics, students and researchers in labor economics, to policy makers, and to those involved in European studies more generally. Contributors include: D. Anxo, G. Bosch, S. Erdogdu, V. Franicevic, J. Gautie, D. Grimshaw, R. Munoz de Bustillo Llorente, J. Masso, K. Krillo, J. Kollo, N. O'Higgins, J. I.A. Perez, A. Rafferty, W. Salverda, V. Tsanov, D. Vaughan-Whitehead

内容説明

Work inequalities in the crisis provides an in-depth overview of the effects of the crisis on inequalities in the world of work. It examines these inequalities multi-dimensionally, looking at employment, wages and incomes, working conditions and social dialogue. At the same time, it investigates whether the crisis may halt the progress made in Europe towards better quality jobs and working conditions. This book offers a unique combination of in-depth research, case studies and policy discussions. Following an assessment of national trends in 30 European countries, 14 country case studies by noted European specialists report on individual enterprises or sectors as well as policy solutions adopted at the national and local levels. By providing an accessible survey of the policies proposed and adopted, this volume contributes to identifying policy responses that strengthen economic competitiveness, preserve social cohesion, and do not aggravate or deepen inequalities in the current circumstances. It also sheds light a further aspect of the crisis that has remained poorly documented thus far, namely its microeconomic effects on different types of workers and the areas of work that directly matter to them. This timely collection is of particular interest to academics, students and researchers in labour economics, to policy-makers, and to those involved in European studies more generally.
