Searching for a job has been an everyday affair in both modern and
past societies, and employment a concern for both individuals and
institutions. The case studies in this volume investigate job
search and placement practices in European countries, Australia,
and India in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. The
contributors explore how looking for work becomes a means by which
participants (individuals, placement agents, trade unions,
municipalities, administrations, state authorities, and schools)
articulated specific interests, perspectives, and agendas. Taking
an exploratory approach, the chapters illustrate different
approaches to the history of employment and job searching, ranging
from organizational and regulatory histories to the analysis of
practices and autobiographical accounts. In the process, they
uncover the interrelations of search practices and attempts to
arrange placement services.
