Die Illusion der Leistungsgerechtigkeit

Jede erfolgreiche Führungskraft verfügt über ein leistungsstarkes »Vorzimmer«. Sekretärinnen an der Hochschule bilden etwa einen Berufsstand, mit dem Wissenschaftler_innen täglich kooperieren, ohne dass dieser je ernsthaft zum Gegenstand ihrer Forschung geworden wäre. Während Sekretariatsarbeit im öffentlichen Dienst durch technische und organisatorische Veränderungen zunehmend anspruchsvoller wird, bleibt die für frauentypische Assistenztätigkeiten übliche niedrige tarifliche Eingruppierung erhalten. Die Studie untersucht die daraus resultierende, individualisierte Form des Arbeitskonflikts um Entgelt. Organisationale Arbeitsplatzbewertungen werden zum Austragungsort der Lohnfindung, in denen Vorstelllungen von Leistung und Gerechtigkeit aufeinandertreffen und unter Bezugnahme auf das Leistungsprinzip ausgehandelt werden. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/

Gespannte Arbeits- und Geschlechterverhältnisse im Marktkapitalismus

Dass sich Arbeits- und Lebenswelten und damit zusammenhängend Geschlechterverhältnisse im Umbruch befinden, ist mittlerweile sowohl in der Frauen- und Geschlechterforschung als auch in der Arbeits- und Industriesoziologie ‚state of the art‘. Die Beobachtung eines tiefgreifenden sozialstrukturellen und ökonomischen Umbruchs zu einer marktkapitalistischen Gesellschaft wird von VertreterInnen beider Disziplinen diagnostiziert. Der vorliegende Band unterzieht diese Thesen einer Revision und Aktualisierung anhand von empirisch innovativen Feldern sowie theoretischen Konzeptionen. Herausgeberinnen: Dr. Karina Becker ist an der Friedrich-Schiller-Universität Jena tätig. Dr. Kristina Binner und Fabienne Décieux arbeiten an der Johannes Kepler Universität in Linz.

The prominent scholars featured in Gendered Innovations in Science and Engineering explore how gender analysis can profoundly enhance human knowledge in the areas of science, medicine, and engineering. Where possible, they provide concrete examples of how taking gender into account has yielded new research results and sparked creativity, opening new avenues for future research. Several government granting agencies, such as the National Institutes of Health and the European Commission, now require that requests for funding address whether, and in what sense, sex and gender are relevant to the objectives and methodologies of the research proposed, yet few research scientists or engineers know how to do gender analysis. This book begins to rectify the situation by shedding light on the how and the why.

New Women of Spain

This collection of essays provides a profound insight into today's discussion of feminist positions among female Spanish scholars. The focus is placed on the social and political achievements that feminism has attained since the transition to democracy in Spain. It outlines the radical changes of the image of women. Above all, however, this reader illustrates the extent of academic research on issues of gender, which has become increasingly differentiated over the last 30 years. This book is a tremendous example of the dramatic development of feminism and the new status of women in Spain. Book jacket.

Global Political Demography

This open access book draws the big picture of how population change interplays with politics across the world from 1990 to 2040. Leading social scientists from a wide range of disciplines discuss, for the first time, all major political and policy aspects of population change as they play out differently in each major world region: North and South America; Sub-Saharan Africa and the MENA region; Western and East Central Europe; Russia, Belarus and Ukraine; East Asia; Southeast Asia; subcontinental India, Pakistan and Bangladesh; Australia and New Zealand. These macro-regional analyses are completed by cross-cutting global analyses of migration, religion and poverty, and age profiles and intra-state conflicts. From all angles, this book shows how strongly contextualized the political management and the political consequences of population change are. While long-term population ageing and short-term migration fluctuations present structural conditions, political actors play a key role in (mis-)managing, manipulating, and (under-)planning population change, which in turn determines how citizens in different groups react.
