Different stakeholders at European level, particularly the Council of Europe and the European Commission, but also individual member states, foster programmes and strategies to enhance the mobility of young people, and particularly the learning dimension in mobility schemes.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At a minimum our goal is to develop a better understanding of Japanese labor market practices and work organization and in so doing develop a more enlightened vision of American practices. We will greatly enhance our ability to achieve both these goals by arriving at a better understanding of the comparative experience of the two nations over time. We can no longer afford the delusion that what exists in the United States reflects the characteristics of industrial society in its most advanced form. Yet to follow current fashion in simply denying that the United States is the very model of a modern society, while advocating that we imitate the Japanese, is to take a course filled with its own pitfalls. Perhaps it is time we accepted the fact that the social scientist’s intense commitment to generalization cannot be allowed to obscure the fundamental observation that nations develop along their own paths, based on their own political, cultural, economic and social histories. As nations industrialize there is undoubtedly convergence in important institutional spheres, such as the expansion of education, the adoption of common technologies and determinants of labor mobility. Certainly nations can learn from one another, and indeed some nations impose their will on other nations. Yet there are also unique solutions to common problems. —From the Introduction This title is part of UC Press's Voices Revived program, which commemorates University of California Press’s mission to seek out and cultivate the brightest minds and give them voice, reach, and impact.

Download or read book Criminal Justice Research in an Era of Mass Mobility written by Andriani Fili and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-05-08 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We live in an era of mass mobility where governments remain committed to closing borders, engaging with securitisation discourses and restrictive immigration policies, which in turn nurture xenophobia and racism. It is within this wider context of social and political unrest that the contributors of this collection reflect on their experiences of conducting criminological research. This collection focuses on the challenges of doing research on the intersections between criminal justice and immigration control, choosing and changing methodologies while juggling the disciplinary and interdisciplinary requirements of the work’s audience. From research design, to fieldwork to writing-up, this book captures every part of the research process, drawing on a range of topics such as migration control, immigrant detention and border policing. It also reflects on more neglected areas such as the interpersonal and institutional contexts of research and the ontological and epistemological assumptions embedded within data analysis methods. It makes a significant contribution to our understanding of the major developments in current research in this field, how and why they occur and with what consequences. This book seeks to shake off the phantom of undisturbed research settings by bringing to the fore the researchers' involvement in the research process and its products. An interdisciplinary collection, it can be used as a reference not just for those interested in the criminology of mobility but also as a learning tool for anyone conducting research on a highly charged topic in contemporary policy and politics.

Download or read book Job Mobility and Pension Participation written by Honsoo Kim and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper addresses the questions of (1) how human capital investment theory and job mobility model can be applied to explain the behavior of individuals with regard to pension participation, and (2) what much more relevant and theoretical linkages between job mobility and pension participation are (3) what other determinants to affect pension participation are. Using data from the Panel Survey of Income Dynamics (PSID), results show that job mobility influences participation in pension plans. That is, we identify that duration of unemployment and employment has negative and positive impact on pension participation. Empirical results also support the argument that union contracts can influence the pattern of pension selection as well as pension participation itself. If employees' contracts are switched to a union contract, and the major pension plans for union members have defined benefit (DB) plans, then they are willing to have those plans. On the other hand, if employees' contracts are switched to a union contract, then new employees covered by the union contract may not be willing to enter defined contribution (DC) plans. Thus, efforts by government to provide employees with pensions through the 401(k) Automatic Enrollment Act of 2005, may have unintended consequences. On the other hand, in terms of job mobility, this policy may be helpful for mobile workers because this policy will encourage those workers to enroll pension plans whenever they move their jobs.
