Conditions of Life - Work - Identity, continuation course

Education facts

Code: 740G64

<p>We explore the intersection of living conditions and identities in relation to contemporary working life and labour markets. A historical perspective is an integrated part of how contemporary labour markets is understood. We also reflect upon the changing political focus, from creating sustainable employment opportunities embedded in a social welfare state to the making of employable citizens in the context of neoliberal workfare regimes. The formation of identities and power relations is explored through a focus on gender, race/ethnicity, social class and intersectionality. Students get the opportunity to elaborate their academic writing as well as participating in an academic debate.&nbsp;</p>
