Abstract

Der Bologna-Prozess verändert die europäischen Hochschulen. Damit steht auch die Promotionspolitik auf dem Prüfstand: An die Stelle des traditionellen Doktorats "in Einsamkeit und Freiheit" soll eine systematische DoktorandInnenausbildung mit Blick auf den Arbeitsmarkt treten. Besonderen Stellenwert haben die stärkere Strukturierung und die Einführung forschungsbegleitender Ausbildungselemente. In der Debatte werden immer wieder die USA als Referenz angeführt. Antonia Kupfer gibt einen Einblick in die US-amerikanische DoktorandInnenausbildung. Sie zeigt, dass hier bereits einiges von dem, was in Deutschland eingeführt werden soll, realisiert wurde, und regt zur Reflexion über Bedingungen sowie Vor- und Nachteile des US-amerikanischen Weges an.

Abstract

This volume is a collection of subject-oriented studies on paid work. Each chapter refers to the social structures that form conditions for peoples' working contexts and interprets workers' and employees' narrations on work. Work appropriation--a process of formation of subjectivity, in which workers and employees relate to the social status of their occupations and the use-value of their work in actively dealing with the work's content and conditions--serves as a comprehensive concept for each varying subject-oriented approach in the volume. 'Work Appropriation and Social Inequality' focuses on social inequality, understood as the distribution of life chances that privilege some and discriminate others and reveals the unequal conditions for, and outcomes of, work appropriation. By analyzing work appropriation, it uses a broader concept than that of 'meaning of work' or 'meaningful work' as it includes the practice and processes of working. The volume's subject-oriented approach to work differs from the stream 'subjectivation' in going beyond individuals' desires for self-realization in work and to companies' requirements of accessing emotional and personal dimensions of their workforce. The volume contains three parts: the first lays out basic approaches to work appropriation and social inequality, the second analyses current threats to work appropriation in the UK and Germany, and the third consists of a philosophical outlook on work in the Anthropocene. The book's impact lies in pushing forward the debate on how work appropriations are linked to unequal social structures. It will therefore appeal to social scientists interested in social inequality, sociology of work and organization, as well as students and teachers at the undergraduate and graduate level in the areas of social sciences.

Abstract

Education is a crucial influence early in life and is therefore inextricably linked with power. This book examines how education can limit opportunities and create social inequality as well as being an empowering force for good. Theoretical approaches on the relationship of power and education are discussed as are questions on power and knowledge.
