Beschreibung:
This book explores the powerful global discourse of employability in labour markets and how it is expressed in local worklife practice. This is key to understanding contemporary changes in the workings of labour markets and highlights changes in ideas regarding responsibility and learning. The book shows how this discourse works, by relating empirical case studies in different sectors of wider policy aims, ideological shifts, and the discursive influences of powerful organizations, such as the EU, OECD and transnational corporations. The cases highlight the dynamics of labour market change across national boundaries and how employees in local contexts learn to deal with new expectations.
No other similar systematic and comparative study of the connection between global and local practices of employabilityRich in local case studies and the way these relate to wider policyMultidisciplinary team of writersTopical and relevant to contemporary labour market discussion and policy making
