Performance Appraisal in Modern Employment Relations
Contributing to the debate on work performance evaluation in a time of technological transformation, this book explores the impact of digitisation on production and organisation models, as well as on the rights and interests of the stakeholders involved. As organisations down-size, merge with other companies and become decentralised, the boundaries in employer-employee-customer relationships are blurred and new models for the organisation and assessment of work performance have emerged. With these new models, innovative regulatory approaches are sorely needed. Taking an interdisciplinary approach and drawing on theoretical concepts from organisation studies, human resource management, sociology and labour economics, this all-encompassing collection is not only essential reading for academics and students, but also for policy-makers and employers who are looking for innovative and practical solutions to the challenges of modern employment relations.
Enhancing Capabilities
The volume suggests a capability perspective for evaluating welfare and educational policies. Capabilities are conceptualized as people’s freedom to choose and conduct a life they have reason to value. The contributions of this volume analyze what social institutions – in particular in the field of education and welfare – may provide in order to enhance capabilities in particular for most vulnerable people.
Families and New Media
The open access edited volume addresses children’s rights and their ability to act in the digital world. The focus is on the position of children as subjects with their own rights and developing capacities. Their consideration by parents, courts and legislators is critically examined. Aspects of digital parenting, especially educational practices and strategies in the context of social media, are analyzed with regard to the tension between protection and participation of children. The edited volume brings debates on privacy and data protection together with those from tort, family and intellectual property law, while also examining the role of families and children in the regulation of data and digital economies, especially online platforms. Legal reflections from Germany, Israel, Portugal and the United States of America are complemented by perspectives from media studies, political science, educational science and sociology of law.

Innovation in Social Services
Across Europe, there is an intense search for new and sustainable approaches to providing welfare. Demographic change, new social risks and other factors call for new ideas to maintain and enhance the performance and quality of social services and to enable the participation of all citizens in an inclusive society. Against this background, and based on the findings of the EU research platform INNOSERV and empirically obtained research results from text and video material, this book provides insights into current approaches and practices to improve and transform social services.
Gesundheit und Krankheit im Zeitalter der Digitalisierung
Wie verändert sich das individuelle und gesellschaftliche Verständnis von Gesundheit und Krankheit durch die Einführung neuer digitaler Technologien? Die Beiträger*innen berücksichtigen technische Aspekte, fokussieren jedoch vor allem darauf, dass die Bestimmung und Grenze zwischen Gesundheit und Krankheit immer stärker auf Quantifizierung oder Daten beruht. Das zieht Veränderungen im Verhältnis von Patient*innen und Ärzt*innen nach sich, betrifft aber auch das Selbstverhältnis zum eigenen Körper und wirft die Frage auf, wie gesundheitsbezogene Ressourcen zukünftig zugeteilt werden. Der interdisziplinäre Blick auf diese Themen bietet sowohl für Gesundheitstheorie als auch -praxis wertvolle Anschlussmöglichkeiten und legt gemeinsame Bezugspunkte offen.
