Handbook of Life Course Occupational Health

This handbook provides a comprehensive overview of recent developments in research on the relationship between occupational trajectories over the life course and health. It uncovers the impact of far-reaching changes of work and employment, as evidenced by increased flexibility, discontinuity, and technological innovation, and offers insights into recent theoretical and methodological developments addressing this challenge. In its main parts, it presents the best evidence to readers about the following topics: early life influences on (un)healthy work, chronic exposure to occupational risks; nonstandard employment and poor health; work continuation with chronic disease; occupational determinants of healthy aging. In its final part, it discusses policy implications of current knowledge and points to the need of developing new solutions in research and practice, not least in times of climate crisis and the new pandemic. The important handbook has been prepared by a distinguished editorial team, with chapters written by prominent international experts. Despite its continuous reference to scientific knowledge it addresses its content to a broader, non-specialized readership.

What does it mean to work in the retail sector today? In Switzerland, two giants share almost the whole market. In order to stay competitive, they intensify the work, demand more availability from their employees and deskill certain positions. How do the store managers achieve profitability objectives despite the constraints in this context? How do the cashiers cope with the increasing automation of their jobs? How do the shelf workers reconcile customer contact with ever-increasing time constraints? This book explains how neoliberal working time patterns are taking place in the supermarkets and questions the evolution of the working day in our society. The study is based on 78 interviews with managers, shop floor workers and union officers. Nicola Cianferoni is a post-doctoral researcher at the University of Geneva and the University of Neuchâtel in Switzerland.

Solidarität heute

Noch bis vor einigen Jahren galt Solidarität als linker, gewerkschaftlicher, gegen globale Ungleichheit engagierter Begriff. Mit nationale Grenzen überspringenden Bekundungen – von »Je suis Charlie« über »Wir schaffen das«, »#MeToo« und »Black Lives Matter« bis hin zur Hochkonjunktur der Solidarität in der Coronapandemie – änderte sich dies. Doch was sind die heutigen Grundlagen von Solidarität? Wie kann solidarisches Handeln gelingen? Bedeutet ein Klick in den sozialen Medien, dass solidarisch gegen Missstände oder strukturelle Unzulänglichkeiten gehandelt wird? Welchen Anfeindungen sind Menschen ausgesetzt, wenn sie sich öffentlich solidarisch verhalten? Ist Solidarität ein Schlüssel zur Bewältigung der gegenwärtigen Krisen? Die Beiträge dieses Buches gehen dem nach, was Solidarität heute in ihrer Vielgestaltigkeit ausmacht.

Depuis trente ans, addictologues, psychologues et médecins s’inquiètent d’une nouvelle forme d’addiction, le workaholisme, défini comme le fait, propre à certains types de personnalité, de travailler de façon excessive et compulsive. Si beaucoup travailler est valorisé, les conséquences négatives pour la santé ou la vie familiale en font un trouble à soigner. À partir de quand travaille-t-on trop ? La réponse varie en fonction des conditions de travail et des normes sociales. De plus, la plupart de ceux qui travaillent beaucoup au détriment de leur santé ou de leurs relations sociales ne présentent pas de dépendance psychologique ou physiologique. L’organisation du travail, les contraintes économiques et sociales, mais aussi parfois l’intérêt de l’activité ou la passion, peuvent expliquer un fort engagement, souvent instrumentalisé par les employeurs. Plutôt que de parler d’addiction au sens strict, cet ouvrage s’intéresse aux multiples dépendances et interdépendances socioéconomiques qui peuvent conduire au surtravail.

Italian Novels of Peasant Crisis, 1930-1950

This book brings together the insights of historians and critics to examine the account given in a range of novels of the effect on peasant society of Fascist ruralist policies and the post-Second World War struggles for land reform. The authors whose works are discussed include Ignazio Silone, Carlo Levi, Francesco Jovine and Cesare Pavese. Pavese turns rural Piedmont into a paradigm of the nation to reveal the tensions of post-war Italy, while Silone, Levi and Jovine not merely challenge traditional stereotypes of the south but challenge the north's conventional assumptions of superiority by offering peasant society as the source of alternative values. The themes of community and ownership of the land run though the novels discussed.
