Comparing European Workers Part A:<br />
Experiences <strong>and</strong> Inequalities<br />
Research in the <strong>Sociology</strong> of Work<br />
Volume 22, Part A<br />
Editor<br />
David Brady, Duke University, NC, USA<br />
Synopsis<br />
This first of two companion volumes places the labor markets,<br />
workplaces, jobs <strong>and</strong> workers of Europe in comparative perspective.<br />
It focuses on the politics, economics, sociology, <strong>and</strong> history of work<br />
<strong>and</strong> workers in Europe. Authors contribute a variety of methodological<br />
<strong>and</strong> theoretical perspectives, with papers that push the boundaries<br />
of evidence <strong>and</strong> argument. In order to place European workers in<br />
comparative perspectives, the volume features articles that analyze<br />
specific European countries, industries <strong>and</strong> firms, analyze Europe<br />
as one of a few cases, <strong>and</strong> analyze many European countries within<br />
a cross-national sample. Specific topics in Comparing European<br />
Workers Part A: Experiences <strong>and</strong> Inequalities include: a multilevel<br />
study of perceived job insecurity in 27 European countries; work<br />
values <strong>and</strong> job rewards among European workers; explaining<br />
cross-national variation in wage inequality; managerial intensity <strong>and</strong><br />
earnings inequality in affluent democracies; cross-national patterns in<br />
individual <strong>and</strong> household employment <strong>and</strong> work hours by gender <strong>and</strong><br />
parenthood; <strong>and</strong> domestic <strong>and</strong> international causes of the rise of pay<br />
inequality in OECD nations.<br />
