Devolution and Power
This article considers the implications of further constitutional devolution for the regulation of work and employment, taking Wales as its case study. It reviews the current profile of the Welsh labour market, the climate for industrial relations and existing structures of pay determination and collective bargaining in this context. The article concludes that devolution presents risks as well as potential benefits, especially where the collectiv…
Changing Places of Work
During the coronavirus pandemic, governments across the world either requested or insisted that work was carried out at home if possible. This chapter reviews what impact the shift of work into the home had – and continues to have – on the lives of millions of employees, the organisations which employ them, and the societies in which they live. For employees, this includes the lengthening of the working day, the intensification of work, the spill…
Evaluation in reinforcing and resisting hierarchical relations between state and civil society
Here we present a critical exploration of evaluation as a concept within a state‐led social policy programme. Studies critiquing this type of evaluation often assume its purpose is to provide knowledge and understanding of a given social policy, and its relative impact upon the social issue towards which it has been directed. However, drawing on the accounts of 25 community development workers gathered over the course of a 17 year state‐led, anti…
Moments of alignment between devolved political ideology and policy design
The devolution of power and responsibility from central to sub national levels of governance over the past half century marks a paradigm shift in forces shaping social policy across much of Western Europe. Scholarship in this field is often concerned with a binary analysis of before and after the advent of devolution, with insufficient attention paid to transitory changes over time. Through attention to Wales’ flagship community regeneration prog…
Everyday practices of memory
This article develops theories of collective memory by attending to the everyday practices and meaning-making involved in creating and sustaining sites of heritage. While research across disciplines linked to memory studies has increased in recent years, with a notable sociological contribution, as yet ethnographic understandings of how collective memory is produced and maintained through locally situated and embedded practices are not fully real…
Interviewing in the 'interview society
The contemporary period has seen the emergence of a society where interviews are pervasive: the 'interview society' (Atkinson and Silverman, 1997). Undertaking qualitative research within this 'interview society' has methodological implications for our understanding of the significance of the technology of the interview itself and the analysis of interview data. To date little attention has been afforded to either participants' accounts of interv…
