This leading, authoritative textbook has been carefully and substantially revised to provide the indispensable foundational resource for the sociology of work. The fourth edition has been transformed to combine unrivalled explanations of classic theories with the most cutting-edge research, data and debates. Keith Grint and Darren Nixon examine different sociological approaches to work, emphasizing the links between social processes, institutions of employment and their social and domestic contexts. The fourth edition includes: A new chapter on work and identity, exploring issues such as the rise of consumption, work life balance, the social meaning of work and unemployment; A fully rewritten chapter on trends in the contemporary service economy, examining emotional and aesthetic labour, the knowledge and cultural economy, and the information society; A new concluding chapter on the future of work, taking in globalization, precarious labour, public sector reforms and unemployment in the wake of the financial crisis, and campaigns around 'bad work'; Updated literature and data throughout, with particularly significant updates to the sections on gender and work, and work technologies. The book has been designed to support readers' understanding and to develop their critical approach to the field, with a range of empirical evidence and examples helping to reveal the complex picture of work/society relations. Written in a lively and accessible style, the book also provides suggestions for further reading and seminar discussion questions. This fourth edition will continue to be essential reading for students of the sociology of work, industrial sociology, organizational behaviour and industrial relations. Students studying business and management courses with a sociological component will also find the book invaluable.
