Download or read book Beyond Employment written by Alain Supiot and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2001-04-26 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is the English edition of what has become widely known as 'The Supiot Report' - a bold and far-reaching look at the changing nature of work initiated by the EC. It takes as its starting point the profound changes that have taken place in the underlying employment relationship and associated human resource practices over the past twenty years. These developments are placed in their economic, social, institutional, and legal contexts. Competitive pressures on firms, the search for greater efficiency and effectiveness in the delivery of public services, the changing role of women in society, and the desire for greater choice on the part of individuals are all important motives for change. The legal framework and the structures and organizations which represent the interests of workers and employers must respond to these changes. Drawing on illustrations from a number of European countries, the book suggests that the legal framework should encourage greater collaboration in the workplace, particularly over issues such as training. But it should also place work within its social context and facilitate genuine choices by individuals.

Download or read book The New Spirit of Capitalism written by Luc Boltanski and published by Verso Books. This book was released on 2018-01-16 with total page 668 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: New edition of this major work examining the development of neoliberalism In this established classic, sociologists Luc Boltanski and Eve Chiapello get to the heart of contemporary capitalism. Delving deep into the latest management texts informing the thinking of employers, the authors trace the contours of a new spirit of capitalism. They argue that beginning in the mid-1970s, capitalism abandoned the hierarchical Fordist work structure and developed a new network-based form of organization founded on employee initiative and autonomy in the workplace—a putative freedom bought at the cost of material and psychological security. This was a spirit in tune with the libertarian and romantic currents of the period (as epitomized by dressed-down, cool capitalists such as Bill Gates and Ben and Jerry) and, as the authors argue, a more successful, pernicious, and subtle form of exploitation. In this new edition, the authors reflect on the reception of the book and the debates it has stimulated.

Download or read book Pourquoi Je Dois Mourir Comme J sus Et Louis Riel written by Jacques Prince and published by Trafford Publishing. This book was released on 2014-03 with total page 213 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La vie de Louis Riel vue d'un autre il! Lumière sur la vie de Louis Riel, lumière du monde. Voir Matthieu 5, 14. Louis Riel était aussi la salière du monde et le monde l'a brisé en l'exécutent. Voir aussi Matthieu 5, 13. Vous êtes le sel de la terre. Mais si le sel perd sa saveur, avec quoi la remplacera-t-on? Il ne sert plus qu'à être jeté dehors et foulé aux pieds par les hommes.' Des dizaines d'écrivains ont écrit sur la vie, la mort et la carrière de Louis Riel, mais ils ont surtout parlé de ses activités politiques et de rébellion. Moi je vous parlerai principalement de ses rapports avec Dieu et qu'il avait les mêmes préoccupations que Jésus avait dans ce monde, c'est-à-dire de délivrer son peuple et de le conduire vers Dieu. Louis Riel avait compris tout comme Jésus que la religion, surtout celle dont la tête est à Rome, était un esclavage épouvantable et qu'il fallait définitivement s'en séparer. C'est donc pour cette raison que le gouvernement de Sir John A. Macdonald pressé par les églises chrétiennes a trouvé le moyen de l'éliminer de cette terre malgré les protestations qui fusaient de toutes parts. Louis Riel devait donc subir le même sort que celui qui l'a inspirer, Jésus de Nazareth, et c'est exactement pourquoi je m'attends à la même conclusion, puisque je fais la même chose, c'est-à-dire, ouvrir les yeux du monde.
Download or read book Capitalism Social Privilege and Managerial Ideologies written by Ernesto R. Gantman and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-06-04 with total page 207 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally published in 2005. This book analyzes the evolution of administrative thought from the nineteenth century to the present, considering it as ideological discourse. Rather than merely being a succession of fads, Gantman shows how each successive discourse about the organization of work serves to legitimate social interests. The book's compelling conclusion is that instead of a tendency towards increasing theoretical refinement, what is more evident is a trend towards fictionalization, which ends in the contemporary paradigm of flatter, more participative and democratic organizational forms. Students and scholars interested in organization theory, management history, the sociology of work or critical management will gain many new insights from this historical reconstruction of the evolution of management thought.

Book excerpt: Examining the traditionally predominant role of the state in shaping employment patterns and social policy in France, French Industrial Relations in the New World Economy analyzes the impact of globalization on French industrial relations. Looking at the changing economic context of industrial relations, this important text places particular emphasis on the notion of a shift from a national, Fordist form of employment regulation, to an international, post-Fordist form - examining in detail the impact of this shift on the role of the French state and on the balance of power between employer and trade union organizations. Including chapters on employer organizations, collective bargaining, the role of the state, and workplace representation, French Industrial Relations in the New World Economy explores this fascinating topic in detail and provides a detailed resource for postgraduates studying trade unions, industrial and employee relations, and industrial studies in general.
