'Non-standard' employment is becoming more common. Fewer people are
working full-time and/or have permanent employment contracts; more
are working part-time, have fixed-term contracts or are
self-employed. Many scholars have pointed to the negative
consequences of this development, including 'precarious' forms of
employment and in-work poverty. This volume provides a thorough
theoretical and empirical analysis of these processes by
understanding the 'destandardization' of employment in Europe and
the associated modifications in socio-economic regulation both at
national and EU level. The book provides country studies of the UK,
Spain, Germany, Poland, Croatia, and the Nordic countries and
offers comparative European analyses of part-time and fixed-term
employment in relation to in-work poverty, exclusion and anomie.
Emphasis is on 'best practice' in the governance of non-standard
employment. Is there evidence for a new and socially inclusive
European employment standard?
