Employment Research and State Traditions

"Carola Frege traces how employment research was born out of the industrial and also democratic transformations of the 19th century, and shows that the variations of employment research can be traced back to nation-specific state traditions. The book argues that these different research cultures are still with us today, despite increasing globalization of the subject matter and growing internationalizations of the academic world. A longitudinal cross-country comparison of publications in the main journals of the field reveals that employment research is still deeply embedded in longstanding country-specific institutional and ideational traditions. Frege makes the case for embracing this diversity, and rejuvenating the subject of employment research through a rediscovery of its policy-oriented research traditions, and a reinstatement of its relevance for society."--Jacket.
