Arbeitssoziologie

This textbook shows how work is shaped by social institutions such as states, markets, households, organisations and formal education. It expands the concept of work, integrates global perspectives and provides students with the knowledge and tools to analyse and shape the institutions of work.
With a clear structure, accessible language, empirical examples and questions for reflection, it offers a solid introduction to the sociology of work. Its target audience includes students of sociology, employment studies, economics and the social sciences. The authors research and teach on work, labour markets, organisations and social inequality in an international context.
