What is the relationship between work and inequality? How has social change influenced the meaning and experience of work? We will explore issues such as: the rise of technology; the prevalence of workplace flexibility; the growth of contingent work; discrimination in the workplace; globalization and immigration; and, the complex relationships between gender, work and family. We also examine a range of social welfare policies, worker organizations, corporate practices, and labor market regulation.
