A collection of essays on the nature and future of work in the global economy. The authors argue that unemployment is the greatest threat to civil society and that the current political and management response offers ambiguous short-term solutions. The papers aim to address these concerns. |
| Synopsis: |
This is an international collection of essays on the nature and future of work in the post-industrial global economy. In Australia, the US and Europe, the authors argue that the major concern of the public, politicians and economists is unemployment - the greatest threat to a civil society, and that the current political and managerial response offers ambiguous and short-term solutions. Aiming to address these concerns, the papers seek to be both absolute and comparative, with international authors contributing on the nature of work and the direction of work creation, the roles of markets, governments and unions, new philosophies and practices in work organization, the "national" economy, and attitudes to work and unemployment. |
