Taking as its basis a number of international surveys and interviews conducted in Europe, the authors consider the significance of work for Europeans today. Over the years the meaning of work has changed. It has become more highly diversified, and it is today invested with high expectations that conflict with organisational developments and the changing nature of the labour market. The authors use a generational perspective to explore whether it is possible to reconcile the contemporary "ethos" of work, especially with regards to women and young people, with organisations that are increasingly under pressure to be profitable and productive. Reinventing Work in Europe will be of interest to scholars and students in the areas of sociology of work, employment and organizations, labour studies, digital economy, and political economy. . 410 0$aDynamics of Virtual Work,$x2947-9304 606 $aIndustrial sociology 606 $aCommunication 606 $aSocial structure 606 $aEquality 606 $aMass media 606 $aSocial policy 606 $aSociology of Work 606 $aMedia and Communication 606 $aSocial Structure 606 $aMedia Sociology 606 $aSocial Policy 615 0$aIndustrial sociology. 615 0$aCommunication. 615 0$aSocial structure. 615 0$aEquality. 615 0$aMass media. 615 0$aSocial policy. 615 14$aSociology of Work. 615 24$aMedia and Communication. 615 24$aSocial Structure. 615 24$aMedia Sociology. 615 24$aSocial Policy. 676 $a306.36 700 $aMéda$b Dominique$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0375946 702 $aVendramin$b Patricia$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910155315603321 996 $aReinventing Work in Europe$92517275 997 $aUNINA
