Sinossi

This comprehensive Handbook presents an overview of current research and thinking within the sociology of work. The contributors examine how the organisation and experience of work are shaped by the evolution of global capitalism, trends in political economy, and rapid technological developments.



The Handbook explores varied forms and experiences of work – from factory, informal, and agricultural work, to more recent developments like platform work, coworking, neo-craft work, and emotional labour. Contributing authors also reflect on social inequalities in the workplace, interrogating the interplay between class, identity, race, gender, and age, and they address important policy issues, such as the climate crisis, digitisation and artificial intelligence, modern slavery, and the future of work. Each chapter critically evaluates core sociological concepts and theories while also identifying potential future research agendas.



The Handbook on the Sociology of Work is a vital resource for scholars and students of sociology, political science, employment studies, and business and management. Practitioners and policymakers will also benefit from the in-depth coverage of such a wide range of contemporary topics in the field.
