Download or read book Besoins de formation continue et crise conomique written by Claude Dubar and published by Presses Univ. Septentrion. This book was released on 1981 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Que devient la formation permanente dans un contexte de crise économique ? Quels sens donner à l'expression « besoin de formation » ? Quel est l'avenir des expériences originales, comme les Actions Collectives de Formation, sous l'effet de l'aggravation de la crise de l'emploi ? C'est à toutes ces questions que l'équipe de recherches réunies autour de C. Dubar dans le cadre du LASTREE a tenté d'apporter des réponses rigoureuses à partir d'un exemple précis : l'Action Collective de Formation de Roubaix-Tourcoing. Eclairant les aspects novateurs de cette expérience tout en la réinsérant dans l'ensemble de la formation continue, la recherche menée analyse les contradictions et les enjeux de la formation dans un contexte de crise aiguë de l'emploi. Elle met à nu les mécanismes de décision et montre en quoi la formation représente un révélateur des conflits et des alliances. Cet ouvrage constitue le premier Cahier du Laboratoire de Sociologie du Travail de l'Éducation et de l'Emploi et le rapport d'une Action Thématique Programmée du CNRS.

This book was released on 1999 with total page 636 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: LA FORMATION PROFESSIONNELLE CONTINUE EST, EN TANT QUE VECTEUR D'ACCROISSEMENT DU NIVEAU DE QUALIFICATION DE LA POPULATION ACTIVE, UN FACTEUR DETERMINANT DE LA CROISSANCE ECONOMIQUE. ELLE REPRESENTE UN INVESTISSEMENT EN CAPITAL HUMAIN FINANCE PAR LES ENTREPRISES MAIS QUI S'INCORPORE DANS DES INDIVIDUS MOBILES SUR LE MARCHE DU TRAVAIL. CETTE MOBILITE POTENTIELLE POUVANT RENDRE LES ENTREPRISES RETICENTES A INVESTIR EN FORMATION, SE POSE ALORS LA QUESTION DE L'EFFICACITE D'UN MARCHE DU TRAVAIL NON REGLEMENTE A FOURNIR DES INCITATIONS SUFFISANTES A LA MISE EN PLACE D'UNE QUANTITE DE FPC SOCIALEMENT OPTIMALE. CETTE THESE PROPOSE DES ELEMENTS DE REPONSE A CETTE QUESTION PAR UNE ETUDE ECONOMETRIQUE COMPARATIVE DES DETERMINANTS ET DES EFFETS DE LA FPC EN FRANCE ET EN GRANDE-BRETAGNE SUR DONNEES INDIVIDUELLES. L'INTERET DE CETTE COMPARAISON RESIDE DANS LE FAIT QUE LE MARCHE DU TRAVAIL BRITANNIQUE N'EST PAS REGLEMENTE EN CE QUI CONCERNE LA FPC, CONTRAIREMENT AU MARCHE FRANCAIS SUR LEQUEL LES ENTREPRISES SONT LEGALEMENT CONTRAINTES A PARTICIPER A L'EFFORT DE FORMATION DE LA POPULATION ACTIVE. LES RESULTATS DE CETTE ETUDE MONTRENT QUE LE PROCESSUS DE SELECTION DANS LA FPC EST SIMILAIRE DANS LES DEUX PAYS ET FAVORISE NOTAMMENT LES HOMMES, LES SALARIES DIPLOMES TRAVAILLANT DANS DES ENTREPRISES DE GRANDE TAILLE. EN REVANCHE, LA SELECTION DANS LA FORMATION SELON DES CARACTERISTIQUES NON STATISTIQUEMENT OBSERVABLES FAVORISE LES INDIVIDUS LES MOINS PRODUCTIFS, A CARACTERISTIQUES OBSERVEES EGALES, EN FRANCE MAIS PAS EN GRANDE-BRETAGNE. DE MANIERE GENERALE, LA FPC REDUIT LA MOBILITE DES SALARIES. ELLE A DE PLUS UN EFFET REEL POSITIF SUR LES SALAIRES A L'INTERIEUR DE LA FIRME FORMATRICE, MAIS EGALEMENT DANS D'AUTRES ENTREPRISES, CE QUI MONTRE QU'ELLE PEUT ETRE TRANSFERABLE DANS CERTAINS CAS DE MOBILITE. ENFIN, LES RESULTATS SUGGERENT QU'IL EXISTE UN SOUS-INVESTISSEMENT EN FPC ET QU'UNE REGLEMENTATION DE L'OFFRE DE FORMATION PAR LES ENTREPRISES PEUT CORRIGER CETTE IMPERFECTION.

Download or read book The French Nonprofit Sector written by Laura Nirello and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2018-08-20 with total page 93 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This article deals with the literature on the French nonprofit sector (NPS). A preliminary part is devoted to presenting and discussing the characteristics that shape the approaches to this sector in France. We stress the strong influence of legal categories on the sector’s definition and, in this context, the importance of the status inherited from the 1901 Act on contracts of association. This raises a problem for a more analytical approach to the sector, because the diversity of the nonprofit organizations (NPOs) regulated under this Act risks being overshadowed. In this first part, we also underline the primacy accorded in France to the concept of the social economy, which has today become the social and solidarity economy (SSE), over that of the nonprofit sector. In the second part, the article outlines some landmarks in the history of the French NPS. French NPOs were for many years objects of suspicion, arbitrariness and repression on the part of the public authorities and this persisted until the 1901 legislation on contracts of association was enacted. However, this hostile context did not prevent the sector from having a richer existence than is sometimes admitted. This literature review also focuses on empirical studies of the sector, placing a particular emphasis on the more recent ones. These French studies basically adopt two types of approach. The first is concerned essentially with the NPOs and focuses its attention on their economic importance, whether measured in terms of financial resources, employment, or, less frequently, added value. The second approach investigates the kinds of individual participation the sector engenders by examining the various forms it takes, such as membership of NPOs or voluntary work. This review ends with the analysis of the challenges that NPS faces in a context characterized by the increasing constraints on public funding, changes in the nature of such funding with a substitution of contracts for subsidies, an increased competition among NPOs as well as between NPOs and for-profit enterprises. The article concludes that, despite the advances in research on the French NPS, some aspects—like formal volunteering and the role of voluntary associations—are still understudied, while others—like informal groups and informal volunteering—are almost totally ignored.
Download or read book Working and Poor written by Rebecca M. Blank and published by Russell Sage Foundation. This book was released on 2007-01-09 with total page 447 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the last three decades, large-scale economic developments, such as technological change, the decline in unionization, and changing skill requirements, have exacted their biggest toll on low-wage workers. These workers often possess few marketable skills and few resources with which to support themselves during periods of economic transition. In Working and Poor, a distinguished group of economists and policy experts, headlined by editors Rebecca Blank, Sheldon Danziger, and Robert Schoeni, examine how economic and policy changes over the last twenty-five years have affected the well-being of low-wage workers and their families. Working and Poor examines every facet of the economic well-being of less-skilled workers, from employment and earnings opportunities to consumption behavior and social assistance policies. Rebecca Blank and Heidi Schierholz document the different trends in work and wages among less-skilled women and men. Between 1979 and 2003, labor force participation rose rapidly for these women, along with more modest increases in wages, while among the men both employment and wages fell. David Card and John DiNardo review the evidence on how technological changes have affected less-skilled workers and conclude that the effect has been smaller than many observers claim. Philip Levine examines the effectiveness of the Unemployment Insurance program during recessions. He finds that the program's eligibility rules, which deny benefits to workers who have not met minimum earnings requirements, exclude the very people who require help most and should be adjusted to provide for those with the highest need. On the other hand, Therese J. McGuire and David F. Merriman show that government help remains a valuable source of support during economic downturns. They find that during the most recent recession in 2001, when state budgets were stretched thin, legislatures resisted political pressure to cut spending for the poor. Working and Poor provides a valuable analysis of the role that public policy changes can play in improving the plight of the working poor. A comprehensive analysis of trends over the last twenty-five years, this book provides an invaluable reference for the public discussion of work and poverty in America.

Download or read book Ethics and Sport in Europe written by Dominique Bodin and published by Council of Europe. This book was released on 2011-01-01 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Defending ethics in sport is vital in order to combat the problems of corruption, violence, drugs, extremism and other forms of discrimination it is currently facing. Sport reflects nothing more and nothing less than the societies in which it takes place. However, if sport is to continue to bring benefits for individuals and societies, it cannot afford to neglect its ethical values or ignore these scourges. The major role of the Council of Europe and the Enlarged Partial Agreement on Sport (EPAS) in addressing the new challenges to sports ethics was confirmed by the 11th Council of Europe Conference of Ministers responsible for Sport, held in Athens on 11 and 12 December 2008. A political impetus was given on 16 June 2010 by the Committee of Ministers, with the adoption of an updated version of the Code of Sports Ethics (Recommendation CM/Rec(2010)9), emphasising the requisite co-ordination between governments and sports organisations. The EPAS prepared the ministerial conference and stepped up its work in an international conference organised with the University of Rennes, which was attended by political leaders, athletes, researchers and officials from the voluntary sector. The key experiences described in the conference and the thoughts that it prompted are described in this publication. All the writers share the concern that the end result should be practical action - particularly in terms of the setting of standards - that falls within the remit of the EPAS and promotes the Council of Europe's core values.

Download or read book Work and Welfare written by Robert M. Solow and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2009-10-15 with total page 121 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Nobel Prize-winning economist Robert Solow directs his attention here to one of today's most controversial social issues: how to get people off welfare and into jobs. With characteristic eloquence, wit, and rigor, Solow condemns the welfare reforms recently passed by Congress and President Clinton for confronting welfare recipients with an unworkable choice--finding work in the current labor market or losing benefits. He argues that the only practical and fair way to move recipients to work is, in contrast, through an ambitious plan to guarantee that every able-bodied citizen has access to a job. Solow contends that the demand implicit in the 1996 Welfare Reform Act for welfare recipients to find work in the existing labor market has two crucial flaws. First, the labor market would not easily make room for a huge influx of unskilled, inexperienced workers. Second, the normal market adjustment to that influx would drive down earnings for those already in low-wage jobs. Solow concludes that it is legitimate to want welfare recipients to work, but not to want them to live at a miserable standard or to benefit at the expense of the working poor, especially since children are often the first to suffer. Instead, he writes, we should create new demand for unskilled labor through public-service employment and incentives to the private sector--in effect, fair "workfare." Solow presents widely ignored evidence that recipients themselves would welcome the chance to work. But he also points out that practical, morally defensible workfare would be extremely expensive--a problem that politicians who support the idea blithely fail to admit. Throughout, Solow places debate over welfare reform in the context of a struggle to balance competing social values, in particular self-reliance and altruism. The book originated in Solow's 1997 Tanner Lectures on Human Values at Princeton University. It includes reactions from the distinguished scholars Gertrude Himmelfarb, Anthony Lewis, Glenn Loury, and John Roemer, who expand on and take issue with Solow's arguments. Work and Welfare is a powerful contribution to debate about welfare reform and a penetrating look at the values that shape its course.

Download or read book Women and Trade written by World Bank;World Trade Organization and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 2020-09-04 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Trade can dramatically improve women’s lives, creating new jobs, enhancing consumer choices, and increasing women’s bargaining power in society. It can also lead to job losses and a concentration of work in low-skilled employment. Given the complexity and specificity of the relationship between trade and gender, it is essential to assess the potential impact of trade policy on both women and men and to develop appropriate, evidence-based policies to ensure that trade helps to enhance opportunities for all. Research on gender equality and trade has been constrained by limited data and a lack of understanding of the connections among the economic roles that women play as workers, consumers, and decision makers. Building on new analyses and new sex-disaggregated data, Women and Trade: The Role of Trade in Promoting Gender Equality aims to advance the understanding of the relationship between trade and gender equality and to identify a series of opportunities through which trade can improve the lives of women.
