Linking Sustainable Human Resources Practices to Corporate Reputation: The Role of Job Satisfaction and Organizational Culture
This study examines how three sustainable human resource practices (green reward, green training, and green recruitment) affect employee job satisfaction and corporate reputation, and how organizational culture moderates the satisfaction‐reputation relationship in sustainability‐oriented organizations. Drawing on social exchange theory and the resource‐based view, a cross‐sectional online survey was administered to 416 employees who had worked in…
Capabilities Approach to Working From Home: Is It the Path to Work Engagement and Work‐Life Balance
This study investigates the role of the capabilities approach (as an ethical framework in management) on the well‐being of workers in the context of working from home. A capabilities approach was used to examine the relationship between work engagement and work‐life balance. Additionally, the conceptual model tested the role of trust as a mediator. The European Working Conditions Survey was the source of data for this study. Participants were sel…
Host language learning and sense of belonging: The perspective of migrant students

To do so, we set the research question “What is the role of the host language, its learning and its use in the integration and inclusion of adult migrants and refugees in Portugal?”. This study draws on the works of Ager and Strang, Narli and Özaşçıl…
Connecting audiences with climate change: Towards humanised and action-focused data interactions
This paper investigates the relationship between design research and humancomputer interaction (HCI) in the context of climate change communication and engagement. We discuss current practices in climate change communication and the decrease in concern and engagement caused by “crisis fatigue”. Through Research through Design (RtD), we set out to investigate data humanism and how users react to climate change data, testing approaches to improve e…
A Bibliometric Approach to the Thesis of the Happy-Productive Worker—A Journey Through the Concepts and Measurement
In an organizational context marked by a concern for well-being, decent working conditions, and the proliferation of events associated with happiness, a theory called the happy-productive worker thesis (HPW) emerged. This thesis is based on the premise that happy workers are more productive than their opposites. Therefore, managing organizations focusing on the internal customers (employees) seems a win-win situation for both parties. In this sen…

Assessment of active citizenship: Defining the conceptual framework
Active Citizenship (AC) is a complex and multidimensional notion that encompasses related constructs, such as civic and political engagement, civic competency, citizens’ identity, democratic values, among others. However, different studies offer different models of AC, focusing on specific aspects of it. In this paper, we focus on the research instruments used in the large international studies of AC, as they reflect how the constructs are unders…
Unhealthy lifestyles, environment, well-being and health capability in rural neighbourhoods: A community-based cross-sectional study
Metabolic risk factors reflect unhealthy lifestyles and can be associated with environment contextual-dependent circumstances. People-centred approaches highlight wider socioeconomic and (natural) environmental determinants reflecting health needs, health expectations and health capability. Our community-based program and cross-disciplinary research provides insights that may improve health-promoting changes in rural neighbourhoods
The Role of Resilience in Reducing Burnout: A Study with Healthcare Workers during the Covid-19 Pandemic
Although burnout is a widely studied topic, there is still much to learn about this symptom during a pandemic crisis like the one caused by COVID-19. Moreover, and according to the Job Demands-Resources (JD-R) theory, the relation between personal resources and burnout is still an understudied topic. The main goal of this research is to understand the influence of mental resilience on the three dimensions of burnout-emotional exhaustion, deperson…
Writing bodies and bodies of text: Thinking vulnerability through monsters
In this article, we suggest approaching writing as a vulnerable practice marked by an unstable boundary between bodies: bodies of text and bodies of writers. We present an exercise‐method that we refer to as Monster Writing, which we have developed in order to engage with these instabilities as well as in order to address experiences of difficulty, anxiety and uncertainty in relation with the text and writing process. Though the writing process c…

Disconnection: Designs and Desires
One of the paradoxes of disconnection is that social platforms like Facebook frame it as a threat to our prosperity while critics associated with “the techlash” maintain that quite on the contrary it is the only thing that brings back the possibility for good life. Disconnection means different things for different actors and these differences manifest in varying desires and designs. The five papers in this panel draw on empirical research and me…
Autogestão E Crise Econômica Na Revolução Portuguesa (1974-1975)
O golpe militar de 25 de abril de 1974 é o ato inaugural da última revolução social europeia do século XX. Uma revolução política democrática logo metamorfoseou-se numa revolução social com a expressiva participação da classe trabalhadora e dos setores populares e estudantis. O longo regime ditatorial colapsou com a derrocada do controle político pelas Forças Armadas. Neste artigo analisamos a história dos processos autogestionários durante o per…
Cidadania participatória no cotidiano escolar: A Vez E a Voz Das Crianças E Dos Jovens
Ao longo dos últimos 60 anos, a Europa tem vivido vagas de transição democrática que envolveram profundas mudanças políticas e uma forte ênfase no papel da Educação na promoção de uma cidadania democrática e europeia. No entanto, e apesar do seu passado autoritário, Portugal tem assistido a uma forte inconsistência das políticas educativas nesta área, em que momentos de grande ênfase na promoção da cidadania vão se alternando com momentos em que …

The results reveal that the quality of participation experiences is related to political efficacy and dispositions to becoming…
Inequality and Unemployment in Europe: The American Cure
There is a common view that unemployment in Europe is attributable to rigid wage structures, high minimum wages, and generous social welfare systems. In fact, countries that possess the low inequality such systems produce tend to experience less unemployment than those that do not. We show that inequality and unemployment are related positively across the European continent, within countries, between countries, and through time. Large intercountr…
Inequality and Unemployment in Europe: The American Cure
What is the relationship between inequality and unemployment? This question is perhaps the most important issue in the political economy of Europe, and it has relevance for other regions with developing transnational ties, including the United States and the North American region
