Skills are key to a better job and a better life. Yet acquiring them is often most difficult for the people who need them most: those trapped in low-paid jobs with hard working conditions. Innovative experiments throughout OECD member countries show that barriers to skills acquisition can be overcome. A wide range of actors from government, business and civil society have joined efforts and embarked on initiatives that indeed fill the gap between labour market policy and vocational training, and workers’ weaknesses and employers’ evolving needs. There are rich lessons to be learned from the experiences of Belgium (Flanders), Canada, Denmark, the United Kingdom and the United States, which are investigated in this book.

Historische Berufsbezeichnungen begegnen uns in Straßennamen, in der Literatur und bildenden Kunst, in Museen und Ausstellungen, und sie spielen in der Familienforschung und Genealogie eine wichtige Rolle. Ob Hamburger Hafenarbeiter, sächsische Bergleute, Angestellte bei der fürstlichen Hoftafel und Jagd, Salzflößer auf bayerischen und österrei¬chischen Flüssen oder abhängige Bauern – in allen Wirtschaftsbereichen sind die Arbeitsbezeichnungen ein Spiegel der Sozial- und Kulturgeschichte und eine Quelle für die Sprachgeschichte. Dieses Wörterbuch ist nicht einfach eine Wortliste, sondern es stellt die Berufsbezeichnungen deutscher Sprache in einen größeren sprachlichen Zusammenhang, beschreibt die verschiedenen Bedeutungen eines Wortes, die in Regionen und Berufszweigen verschieden sein können, stellt die Synonyme und die Wortfamilien zusammen, gibt die Etymologie an und verzeichnet die aus Berufsbezeichnungen abgeleiteten Familiennamen, in Auswahl auch die in den Quellen vorkommenden lateinischen Entsprechungen. Ausführliche Register ermöglichen einen Zugang zu allen Wortformen. Das Buch ist ein unverzichtbares Hilfsmittel für Sprachwissenschaftler, Historiker, Archivare, Kuratoren, Ahnenforscher und Namenkundler. This dictionary is a compilation of historical occupational titles in the German language drawn from diverse economic sectors and regions, presented in a linguistic context with definitions, expert references, etymologies, as well as family names. It will thus be a key source in cultural and linguistic history and an essential tool for historians, archivists, curators, as well as onomatologists and family researchers.
