Sommario/riassunto

This book focuses on the multiple and diverse masculinities 'at work'. Spanning both historical approaches to the rise of 'profession' as a marker of masculinity, and critical approaches to the current structures of management, employment and workplace hierarchy, the book questions what role masculinity plays in cultural understandings, affective experiences and mediatised representations of a professional 'career'.

Sommario/riassunto

Una ricerca e una denuncia che si oppone alla tesi ufficiale: "La situazione in Campania, per quanto concerne la gestione dei rifiuti, non avrebbe avuto conseguenze pregiudizievoli per la pubblica incolumità e per la salute umana". Affermazione delle autorità italiane nella causa C-297/08 della Commissione europea contro la Repubblica italiana condannata, in data 4 marzo 2010, per "Non aver adottato, per la regione Campania, tutte le misure necessarie per assicurare che i rifiuti siano recuperati o smaltiti senza pericolo per la salute dell'uomo e senza recare pregiudizio all'ambiente".
