This book argues that it needs a revision: Although flexicurity is set out to change the way Europeans work and live, and even though it is being justified by workers' needs, flexicurity lacks of a clear and democratically justified vision of society. Flexicurity is confronted here with Amartya Sen's capability-approach, a paradigm of well-being evaluation. How is flexicurity related to a concept of employment as part of a way of life which people have reason to value? How capability-friendly are established flexicurity-indicators? It is thus shown how the capability-approach can be used in the field of labour-market and social policy. 606 $aLabor policy$zEuropean Union countries 606 $aJob security$zEuropean Union countries 615 0$aLabor policy 615 0$aJob security 676 $a331.094 700 $aLehwess-Litzmann$b Rene?$f1981-$01369239 801 0$bNjHacI 801 1$bNjHacl 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910725028403321 996 $aCapability as a yardstick for flexicurity$93395288 997 $aUNINA
