Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: [Résumé] Aujourd'hui, avoir un travail est la reconnaissance d'une utilité sociale, un gage d'inscription dans l'univers des droits sociaux, une condition pour être citoyen et un facteur d'intégration. Le travail est devenu un bien premier. Mais ce bien premier manque, terriblement. Il n'y a pas assez de travail. Ou plutôt pas assez d'emplois, cette activité encadrée par un ensemble de droits et de devoirs qui forme le vecteur par lequel un individu accède à la citoyenneté sociale. Si le travail forme la question sociale de cette fin de siècle, c'est bien parce que se noue autour du rapport revenu/travail un enjeu de redistribution de la richesse collective. Cet ouvrage est un recueil de thèses données à l'Université de Fribourg dans le cadre d'un cycle de conférences thématiques. Sans proposer de solution inédite, il se veut une fenêtre sur la nature des débats et de leurs enjeux, invitant le lecteur à aller plus loin en approfondissant les thèses des auteurs

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Gilda je t'aime, à bas le travail", "Travailler moins pour travailler tous", "Travailler plus pour gagner plus" : la succession des formules emblématiques témoigne du changement d'époque. Voici dix ans encore, on parlait de la disparition progressive du travail. Aujourd'hui, c'est l'éloge d'un travail sans limites qui domine. Mais il conduit au salarié jetable et au plein emploi précaire. Pourtant, le travail contemporain n'est pas que plaintes et souffrances. De multiples expériences réinventent un travail porteur de sens et de solidarité. Loin d'une fausse alternative entre fin du travail et travail sans fin, le défi consiste à articuler les initiatives de la société civile avec des politiques publiques appropriées. Contre l'économisme, Jean-Louis Laville remet le travail au coeur de la question politique. Sans revenir aux compromis du passé, mais en restant attaché aux visées d'émancipation et d'égalité.

Download or read book The New Social Question written by Pierre Rosanvallon and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2024-04-16 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How social and intellectual changes undermine our justifications for the welfare state The welfare state has come under severe pressure internationally, partly for the well-known reasons of slowing economic growth and declining confidence in the public sector. According to the influential social theorist Pierre Rosanvallon, however, there is also a deeper and less familiar reason for the crisis of the welfare state. He shows here that a fundamental practical and philosophical justification for traditional welfare policies—that all citizens share equal risks—has been undermined by social and intellectual change. If we wish to achieve the goals of social solidarity and civic equality for which the welfare state was founded, Rosanvallon argues, we must radically rethink social programs. Rosanvallon begins by tracing the history of the welfare state and its founding premise that risks, especially the risks of illness and unemployment, are equally distributed and unpredictable. He shows that this idea has become untenable because of economic diversification and advances in statistical and risk analysis. It is truer than ever before—and far more susceptible to analysis—that some individuals will face much greater risks than others because of their jobs and lifestyle choices. Rosanvallon argues that social policies must be more narrowly targeted. And he draws on evidence from around the world, in particular France and the United States, to show that such programs as unemployment insurance and workfare could better reflect individual needs by, for example, making more explicit use of contracts between the providers and receivers of benefits. His arguments have broad implications for welfare programs everywhere and for our understanding of citizenship in modern democracies and economies.
Download or read book Les m tamorphoses de la question sociale written by Robert Castel and published by Gallimard Education. This book was released on 1999 with total page 813 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Il a fallu des siècles de sacrifices, de souffrances et d'exercice continu de la contrainte pour fixer le travailleur à la tâche, puis pour l'y maintenir en lui associant un large éventail de protections qui définissent un statut constitutif de l'identité sociale. Mais c'est au moment même où la " civilisation du travail ", issue de ce processus séculaire, paraissait consolidée sous l'hégémonie du salariat et avec la garantie de l'État social que l'édifice s'est fissuré, faisant ressurgir la vieille obsession populaire d'avoir à vivre " au jour la journée ". Désormais, l'avenir est marqué du sceau de l'aléatoire. La question sociale, aujourd'hui, se pose à partir du foyer de la production et de la distribution des richesses, dans l'entreprise, à travers le règne sans partage du marché - et donc n'est pas, comme on le croit communément, celle de l'exclusion. Elle se traduit par l'érosion des protections et la vulnérabilisation des statuts... L'onde de choc produite par l'effritement de la société salariale traverse toute la structure sociale et l'ébranle de part en part. Quelles sont alors les ressources mobilisables pour faire face à cette hémorragie et pour sauver les naufragés de la société salariale ?
Download or read book Changing Working Life and the Appeal of the Extreme Right written by Jörg Flecker and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-04-08 with total page 319 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book investigates the interplay of the recent transformation of working life and the growing appeal of political right-wing populism and extremism in Europe. It explores the individual and collective reactions and the strategies people develop in order to come to terms with socio-economic change. It raises the question of whether, and to what extent, changes in the employment system and in working life contribute to making people receptive to xenophobia, nationalism and racism. Based on an eight country study using both quantitative and qualitative research methods, this volume makes a significant contribution to the deeper understanding of the subjective reactions to socio-economic change and its political reverberations.
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 688 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 The Social Question in the Global World written by Ewa Bogalska-Martin and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2018-04-18 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In an era of rapid globalisation, how can the changes that characterise how the social question is addressed in rich and emerging countries be analysed? How can one interpret the crisis in the Welfare State and the emergence of new social policies that push for the financial contribution of beneficiaries and the development of new forms of solidarity? What can be said about the world’s poorest countries and their recurrent difficulty in benefiting from international aid to fight against poverty and ensure the protection of all people? This volume brings together 24 researchers from around the world to analyse a series of case studies of developed, emerging and developing countries. They study the evolution or decline observed in these countries and propose some answers to the issue of the way in which the economic model influences how the social question is taken into account around the world. A closer look reveals that the manner in which this question is addressed largely determines how the evolution of the world is perceived. While the contributors here highlight how capitalism makes it possible to reflect on the issue of social protection, they also show the limits of policies unable to guarantee this protection as soon as the economic situation can no longer allow countries to bear its costs.
Download or read book The Deconstruction of Employment as a Political Question written by Amparo Serrano-Pascual and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-07-20 with total page 353 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The wide-ranging European perspectives brought together in this volume aim to analyse, by means of an interdisciplinary approach, the numerous implications of a massive shift in the conception of ‘work’ and the category of ‘worker’. Changes in the production models, economic downturn and increasing digitalisation have triggered a breakdown in the terms and assumptions that previously defined and shaped the notion of employment. This has made it more difficult to discuss, and problematise, issues like vulnerability in employment in such terms as unfairness, inequality and inadequate protection. Taking the ‘deconstruction of employment’ as a central idea for theorising the phenomenon of work today, this volume explores the emergence of new semantic fields and territories for understanding and regulating employment. These new linguistic categories have implications beyond language alone: they reformulate the very concept of waged employment (including those aspects previously considered intrinsic to the meaning of work and of being ‘a worker’), along with other closely associated categories such as unemployment, self-employment, and inactivity.
Download or read book With Us Always written by Donald T. Critchlow and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 1998 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although welfare reform is currently the government's top priority, most discussions about the public's responsibility to the poor neglect an informed historical perspective. This important book provides a crucial examination of past attempts, both in this country and abroad, to balance the efforts of private charity and public welfare. The prominent historians in this collection demonstrate how solutions to poverty are functions of culture, religion, and politics, and how social provisions for the poor have evolved across the centuries.

Download or read book The New Spirit of Capitalism written by Eve Chiapello and published by Verso Books. This book was released on 2018-01-16 with total page 653 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this major work, sociologists Luc Boltanski and Eve Chiapello go to the heart of the changes in contemporary capitalism. Via an unprecedented analysis of the latest management texts that have formed the thinking of employers in their reorganization of business, the authors trace the contours of a new spirit of capitalism. They argue that from the middle of the 1970s onwards, capitalism abandoned the hierarchical Fordist work structure and developed a new network-based form of organization that was founded on employee initiative and autonomy in the workplace-a "freedom" that came at the cost of material and psychological security. The authors connect this new spirit with the children of the libertarian and romantic currents of the late 1960s (as epitomised by dressed-down, cool capitalists such as Bill Gates and "Ben and Jerry") arguing that they practice a more successful and subtle-form of exploitation. Now a classic work charting the sociological structure of neoliberalism, Boltanski and Chiapello show how the new spirit triumphed thanks to a remarkable recuperation of the left's critique of the alienation of everyday life that simultaneously undermined their "social critique." In this new edition, the two authors reflect on the reception of the book and the debates it has stimulated.
