This book contains a collection of essays treating various aspects of contemporary labor markets. Its most general theme is the differentiation of the labor force and its social and economic consequences. Several of the chapters focus on unemployment and marginalization. Another issue is how industrial and occupational structures are connected with the development of post-industrialism, the service society, the informational society, or whatever label we prefer to use.
