1 Cross-National Comparative Labour Market Research Seminar, 2 nd term Organized by Hans-Peter Blossfeld (Meetings by appointment) Please register online Contact: Adele.Battistini@EUI.eu Description Post-industrial labor markets are social institutions where social relationships, customs and rules dominate the structure of market exchange. If we want to understand social stratification in advanced economies we need to understand how these labor markets operate. The seminar will familiarize students with a variety of sociological and economic theories about how labor markets work. We will then apply this analytical framework to evaluate empirical research on e.g. the long-term transformation of work, changing job supply and demand, changing qualification requirements (upgrading, downgrading), job mobility and career patterns, different employment and job opportunities for men and women, changes of gender inequality, the role of part-time and atypical work, rising wage inequality and unemployment, the globalization and flexibilization of labor markets in modern societies as well as the impact of immigration. We also want to debate the impact labor market and family policies and different welfare state regimes. Among the public policies offered are social insurance and assistance programs that provide income protection and supportive services to persons experiencing unemployment, retirement, disability, or poverty as well as programs of education. Wherever possible, we will focus on cross-national comparisons. Schedule The seminar will take place on Tuesdays from 11:00 to 13:00, in Seminar Room 2 in the Badia, and will run from Tuesday 12 th January to Tuesday 15 th March. The full list of the seminar sessions is the following: Session 1 Tuesday 12 th January 11:00 13:00 Seminar Room 2 Session 2 Tuesday 19 th January 11:00 13:00 Seminar Room 2 Session 3 Tuesday 26 th January 11:00 13:00 Seminar Room 2 Session 4 Tuesday 2 nd February 11:00 13:00 Seminar Room 2 Session 5 Tuesday 9 th February 11:00 13:00 Seminar Room 2 Session 6 Tuesday 16 th February 11:00 13:00 Seminar Room 2 Session 7 Tuesday 23 rd February 11:00 13:00 Seminar Room 2 Session 8 Tuesday 1 st March 11:00 13:00 Seminar Room 2 Session 9 Tuesday 8 th March 11:00 13:00 Seminar Room 2 Session 10 Tuesday 15 th March 11:00 13:00 Seminar Room 2
2 Attendance Requirements: The seminar will include a combination of seminar presentations and discussions.
