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.

"A major issue faced by many employed working mothers in the United States is the daily juggling act they must perform to balance conflicting demands of work and family responsibilities. People want to provide the best for their families materially as well as psychologically and emotionally. Yet, work schedules and other elements related to work are often not in agreement with the demands of family life. This seems particularly troubling for women who tend to have primary responsibility for the care and well being of children and other family members. It is especially troubling for those who are single parents and employed in low-wage jobs such as homecare and domestic paid labor. African American women are disproportionately represented in each of these categories (Amott and Matthaei, 1996, p. 171). Moreover, concerns about good mothering profoundly affect African American women because the low wage and low incentive occupations that they are segregated into are the least compatible with work and family demands. This study attempts to understand how African American female low-wage workers negotiate the daily activities with the demands of low-wage work and family life"--Introduction.
