Abstract:
Active labor market policies consist of a diverse set of policy tools with which to address joblessness and the degree to which governments invest in various policies as a response to rising unemployment varies widely. Fleshing out the determinants by policy type holds the promise of illuminating more clearly contestation over activation. To this end, this study analyzes the role of partisanship as well as welfare state regimes and the economy on spending patterns. We begin by detailing a theoretical framework for understanding variation in active labor market policies. Bonoli categorizes acti

In this article, I argue that Hannah Arendt’s well-known but controversial distinction between labour, work, and action provides, perhaps unexpectedly, a conceptual grounding for transforming politics and policy-making at the EU level. Beyond the analysis and critique of modernity, Arendt brings the conceptual resources needed for the EU to move beyond the modern trap it fell into thirty years ago. At that time, the European Commission shifted its purpose away from enhancing interdependence among Member States with a common market towards achieving an internal market in the name of boosting gr

Political fragmentation has been conceptualized as a phenomenon which increases competition for mobile citizens and jobs between local governments within the same region. However, the empirical basis for this nexus between governmental fragmentation and increased competition for development is surprisingly lacking. Utilizing a newly constructed database that matches political fragmentation indices (horizontal, vertical, and bordered) to a nationwide survey of economic development officials in 2014, we begin to fill this gap by analyzing the influence fragmentation has on the use of tax incenti

The purpose of this article is thus to restore to this concept its full dimension and to show that it is not a question of using public subsidies to develop a few domestic-type jobs but to open up the way to another form of growth better able to m

There is a wide spread discrimination between the genders at the Swedish labour market. Women get lower wages, their skills are undervalued compared to men, it is harder for women to advance, they are more likely to involuntary do part time jobs and they usually end up in the least qualified and stimulating jobs. The governmental policy seems affectless and companies are unable or unwilling to change. Historical, sociological and rational choice institutionalism can offer an explanation to the problem.

Full text
Abstract:
Germany has become one of the most competitive economies in the world. Only a decade and a half ago it was widely derided as stagnant, and ridden by political paralysis in reforming its labour market policies. However, in 2002, the discovery of manipulated statistics in the German Employment Agency opened a window of opportunity to break the stalemate in corporatist policymaking. In response, the government convened a commission to design labour market policy reforms: the Hartz Committee, named for its chair, Peter Hartz. Including experts, politicians, and members from interest groups in the commission enabled the government to promote the ‘Hartz Reforms’ on the basis of expertise and compromise. Their focus was on creating incentives for seeking employment. Job search assistance and monitoring gained importance, whereas ineffective job creation and early retirement schemes were abolished or reduced. These activating reforms successfully tackled structural unemployment and increased the overall employment rate. Their success in strengthening economic resilience was demonstrated during the 2008 economic crisis, when in combination with other measures such as the extension of short-time work, and controlled unit labour costs, they led Germany’s labour market through the deep recession.

Full text
Abstract:
This chapter offers a more historical and sociological perspective on the inclusionary and exclusionary effects of criminal law, determining who is inside and who is outside the polity’s ‘civil order’. In so doing, the chapter draws upon Lindsay Farmer’s work which tracks shifts in the structure and content of criminal law with shifting notions of ‘civil order’. The resulting analysis illuminates the shifting social functions of criminalization during different historical phases, especially as it relates to migration control and labour market governance. Legal norms have both reflected and constructed political and social boundaries, often based around racialized notions of ‘good’ and ‘bad’ migrants. The most recent phase of criminal law intervention conjoins highly deregulated labour markets and highly juridified migration regimes. This has been linked to the rise of populism and more authoritarian and nationalistic forms of statecraft. Nevertheless, this chapter asserts that we should avoid determinism in reading these historical shifts.

Abstract:
As regards unemployment provision programmes and job protection law in the Netherlands surprisingly little was changed during the crisis. In this chapter, this absence of reforms is attributed to a ‘silent uprising’ on the part of the low and lower-middle classes. Through their support for two new political parties in the Dutch parliament and a change of course by the largest trade union in the Netherlands, they prevented the main political parties from implementing new reforms after two decades of fundamental change in Dutch unemployment provision and job protection systems. At the same time, as a result of attempts to cut back government spending, activation programmes in both unemployment insurance and social assistance were run down. However, it will be claimed in this chapter that a new active labour market policy paradigm is emerging in the Netherlands, which will be dubbed ‘deficiency compensation’.

Abstract:
Since the mid-1990s, a number of e-recruiting methods such as job boards, corporate career Web sites, and e-recruiting consortia have been introduced into the labor market. Recruiting through the corporate career Web site has been touted as the most efficient and cost-effective recruiting method among them. While most large and medium-sized organizations have deployed corporate career Web sites, many of them have failed to achieve the maximum benefits because they do not have the appropriate e-recruiting practice in place. After identifying six categories of e-recruiting sources, this study analyzes the corporate career Web sites of the Fortune 100 companies. Thirty-three attributes that characterize the corporate career Web sites were identified, named, and analyzed around four major categories: recruiting methods, job search tools, job application tools, and information on organizational attributes.

Abstract:
This chapter outlines how political economy—particularly neoliberalism and marketization—has impacted on pedagogy within higher education globally, and specifically on archaeological pedagogy. This is most explicitly seen in debates on vocational training, where concerns with speed, efficiency, and market forces frame training in banking instrumentalist terms. In contrast, the chapter argues that taking an assemblage approach foregrounds the multivocality of the archaeological process and recognizes that learning assemblages are comprised of multiple material elements, which also substantially affect learning. It considers online learning and massive open online courses (MOOCs), examining how a technology which should democratize can marginalize the individuals who need it most. Ways forward are presented, drawing on examples of good practice such as Framework Archaeology, Catalhöyük, and the Ardnamurchan Transitions Project (ATP), including technology and the Archaeological Skills Passport as tools for reflection. The ‘training versus education’ dichotomy is challenged, arguing that these are components of the same learning assemblages.

Abstract:
The rise of social video sharing internationally has enabled talented individuals to share user-generated video contents that attract audiences (viewers who engage in “views”) and followers (“subscribers” to the channel) and enable income generation as “influencers” (once a particular threshold of an audience population has been reached). Such individuals usually promote particular interests, whether these are commercial markets or political entities. The cultivating of a transnational image and the making of an international celebrity require some foundational approaches. From the collection of videos shared by a young American artist/illustrator and social influencer, this work abstracts insights about the strategies and tactics behind the making of transnational celebrity based on both empirics and abductive logic.

Abstract:
Graduate students in the humanities increasingly view training in the use of digital tools and methodologies as critical to their success. Graduate students' interest in becoming familiar with digital tools often accompanies their awareness of a competitive academic job market, coupled with a recognition that teaching and research positions increasingly call for experience and skills in the Digital Humanities (DH). Likewise, recent debates over DH's role in the future of humanities scholarship have heightened the sense that DH skills can translate to crucial job skills. While many graduate students receive encouragement from faculty to pursue digital scholarship, individual academic departments often have limited resources to prioritize the development of these skills at the expense of existing curricular components. This chapter looks at initiatives at the University of Michigan Library that demonstrate the ways in which subject librarians, in collaboration with data and technology specialist librarians, can fill this gap by creating opportunities for graduate students to develop DH skills.

In this chapter, the authors explore the different literature that analyses the application of Social Network Sites (SNSs) in e-government to help government managers to improve citizens' communication and participation. The use of Web 2.0 tools is perceived as a new way of communication not only in the political arena but also on the government level to improve civic engagement, to coproduce public services, and to increase service personalization. Citizens still like traditional communication tools, and it is important not to overload them through SNSs. The authors show possible new trends for future analysis on the application of SNSs.

Abstract:
Nowadays, the architect and urban planner’s professional have their professional practices intrinsically tied to the use of computers and software. Besides the acquisition of hardware, the prices of these softwares are a barrier for many professionals that are just now entering the job market, who end up using them by improper means -violating intellectual property laws. Such practice incurs illegal activity and creates distortions in market prices practiced by professionals. That’s why there is a need to study architects’ and urban planners’ workflow to formalize guidelines as to the possibil

Concentration of power market revolutionary changes within the relatively narrow time frame of the last decade will continue for at least another decade. Too many dynamic factors have been seen in the research &amp; development of new power generation technology as well as commercial realisation. Too many impulses have been also seen in the independent power market arena. New legislation framework, new financing tools, deregulation, privatisation and liberalisation trends have become typical with many emerging-economy countries but also with countries having highly developed infrastructure sup

Abstract:
Design for sustainability often considers three potentially competing objectives in economic, ecological, and social sustainability. In general, business success hinges on economic sustainability, while ecological and social concerns are treated as secondary objectives for marketing or political purposes. Previous research has shown that there is a tradeoff among these sustainability objectives regarding design decisions that include tolerances and material choices, and different market- or policy-driven incentives may result in different optimal design decisions.

Abstract:
The increasing complexity of engineering and technology requires that students master an increasing amount of abstract knowledge to remain competitive in today’s job market. However, today’s students find it difficult to create mental images of abstract concepts, due to lack of real world experience. This problem is more evident in advanced design classes teaching product design concepts and methodologies. In this paper, we introduce a system engineering software package that is used in our capstone design class, with which students are able to create their own framework of product development

Abstract:
In the decade after the Civil Rights Act of 1964, African Americans made historic gains in accessing employment opportunities in racially integrated workplaces in U.S. business firms and government agencies. In the previous working papers in this series, we have shown that in the 1960s and 1970s, Blacks without college degrees were gaining access to the American middle class by moving into well-paid unionized jobs in capital-intensive mass production industries. At that time, major U.S. companies paid these blue-collar workers middle-class wages, offered stable employment, and provided employe
