Mehr zum Buch

Focusing on the experience of work in modern Greece, the book delves into employment insecurity and the impact of a welfare state crisis amidst high unemployment. It offers a theoretical and anthropological perspective, challenging traditional views of work as merely economic. By presenting a comparative analysis, it examines work as a social phenomenon, exploring themes of transformation, meaning, and narrative. The insights are supported by original empirical research, linking the nature of work to broader social policies and political decision-making processes.
