Valenze sets aside this approach in order to examine the underlying assumptions about gender and work that informed the transformation of English society, and in turn, our ideas about economic progress. How did England change from an agriculturally based... Why study women and the industrial revolution?

ISBN: 9780195158021 / Angielski / Miękka / 384 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych.

Law and custom generally sought to protect women from exploitation, and sometimes from employment itself; but at the same time, they assigned the most important benefits to wage work. Most policy makers (even female ones) assumed from the...

Masculinity and the British Organization Man Since 1945
ISBN: 9780198256939 / Angielski / Twarda / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The post-war period is often regarded as a time when Britain underwent its managerial revolution, the family firm and the "gentleman amateur" giving way to the large bureaucracy and the trained management expert. Yet the conception of modern management as an objective process could hardly be further from the truth. Drawing on detailed life-history interviews with the post-war generation of "organization men," this study argues that despite the rise of professional management, relations between managers continue to function in highly subjective ways. An "emotional economy" flourishes among men...

Trade Unionism in Recession
ISBN: 9780198279204 / Angielski / Twarda / 384 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. During the 1980s, British trade unionism confronted its greatest challenge, and suffered its greatest reverses, since the inter-war period. After a decade of rapid growth, the unions experienced a steep decline in membership, and a virtual marginalization in national political affairs. This book addresses a number of fundamental questions raised by the record of these years, including the reasons for membership loss and the steps the unions took in reaction to the membership problem. It also looks at whether this period can be seen as making a fundamental break with the past, or whether the...
