What's wrong with work shows that how workers are treated has wide implications beyond the lives of workers themselves. Recognising gender, race, class and global differences, the book considers the ways formal work is often dependent on informal work and concludes by considering what might make work better.

Le travail est-il moral ou immoral ? La société capitaliste envisage le travail selon une conception éthique autant que religieuse.Considéré comme une vertu, la question de ses conditions tend à n’être plus posée. À l’inverse, si on le mésestime, il entraîne des revendications économiques et sociales. Mais l'engrenage du travail, censé favoriser l’élévation vers les hautes sphères de l’esprit, y fait aussi obstacle en justifiant l'asservissement. Pour résoudre cette équation insoluble, le philosophe italien reprend à son compte, avec un art de la transmission qui lui est propre et parfois non sans les critiquer, les travaux de Schiller, Simmel, et même le Manifeste du parti communiste de Marx et Engels. Surtout, Rensi démontre ici, de nouveau, sa faculté de stimuler les esprits. Car si, à ses yeux, la haine que le travail inspire apparaît proportionnelle au désir d’atteindre la véritable destinée humaine, il valorise du même coup le jeu, l’art, la passion des sciences, toute activité susceptible d’échapper à la contrainte et au diktat de l’argent.

Covering important topics such as job satisfaction, workplace stress, and the changing nature of jobs and careers in the 21st century, this valuable resource explores how working affects us psychologically, for better and for worse and sometimes in imperceptible ways. Although most people go to work Monday through Friday, few stop to think about the central role work plays in our lives. Besides allowing us to provide for the material needs of ourselves and our families, having a job or career can help us to meet new people and stay socially connected, to increase our self-esteem and sense of self-worth, and to allow us to have an impact on the world. But work can also leave us exhausted and stressed, and many people find it difficult to balance their work and personal lives. This clear and accessibly written book in Greenwood's Psychology of Everyday Life series provides readers with an understanding of the important roles work plays in our lives, the many forms work may take, and the ways in which our relationships with work change throughout our lives. The information, presented in an unassuming, easy-to-understand manner, is drawn from classical theory as well as from contemporary research, affording readers a well-rounded understanding of the topic. The book also includes a collection of real-world scenarios to illustrate key concepts as well as scholarly essays offering perspective on current issues and debates related to work in America.

From their everyday work in kitchens and gardens to the solemn work of laying out the dead, the Anglican women of mid-twentieth-century Conception Bay, Newfoundland, understood and expressed Christianity through their experience as labourers within the family economy. Women's work in the region included outdoor agricultural labour, housekeeping, childbirth, mortuary services, food preparation, caring for the sick, and textile production. Ordinary Saints explores how religious belief shaped the meaning of this work, and how women lived their Christian faith through the work they did. In lived religious practices at home, in church-based voluntary associations, and in the wider community, the Anglican women of Conception Bay constructed a female theological culture characterized by mutuality, negotiation of gender roles, and resistance to male authority, combining feminist consciousness with Christian commitment. Bonnie Morgan brings together evidence from oral interviews, denominational publications, census data, minute books of the Church of England Women's Association, headstone epitaphs, and household art and objects to demonstrate the profound ties between labour and faithfulness: for these rural women, work not only expressed but also shaped belief. Ordinary Saints, with its focus on gender, labour, and lived faithfulness, breaks new ground in the history of religion in Canada.
