Support and employment preferences in online platform work: A cluster analysis of German‐speaking workers
Online platform work is an emerging field of non‐standard employment. Up to now, there has been little knowledge of the perspective of online platform workers on social protection and regulation. We provide quantitative data ( n = 1727) on their needs for support and on their employment status preferences. Given the heterogeneity of German‐speaking online platform workers, we have conducted a cluster analysis to group workers according to task le…
Dependency and Social Recognition of Online Platform Workers: Evidence From a Mixed‐Methods Study
This article is about those who need or want to make a living from working on online platforms. Moreover, questions of financial dependence are related to why this work is done and what social recognition the workers expect from it. Our mixed‐methods approach captures this heterogeneous field of online platform work by dividing it into three categories: (a) microwork, (b) mesowork, and (c) macrowork. Microwork involves offering short, repetitive …
Arbeit im ökologischen Wandel: Einführung in sozioökonomische Perspektiven und Alternativen
Arbeit im Wechselspiel zwischen Freiheit, Gerechtigkeit und Nachhaltigkeit Wie kann Arbeit nachhaltig gestaltet werden? Wie hängen Umweltgerechtigkeit, Nachhaltigkeit und aktuelle Trends in der Arbeitswelt zusammen? Mit dem Ziel, einen Überblick über den aktuellen Wissensstand zur Arbeit im ökologischen Wandel zu liefern, spannt die Autorin einen weiten Bogen. Prekäre Tendenzen bei den Arbeitszeiten und Verträgen stehen ebenso zur Diskussion wie …
Restricted family presence for hospitalized surgical patients during the Covid-19 pandemic: How hospital care providers and families navigated ethical tensions and experiences of institutional betraya…
Early in the COVID-19 pandemic restricted family presence in hospitals was a widespread public health intervention to preserve critical resources and mitigate the virus's spread. In this study, we explore the experiences of surgical care providers and family members of hospitalized surgical patients during the period of highly restricted visiting (March 2020 to April 2021) in a large Canadian academic hospital. Thirty-four interviews were complet…
Liquid History
Scuba-diving in the Black Sea, a writer contemplates Lenin in the Crimean seabed, the watery landfall from which historical figures are never meant to rise again
Case Study of Persons with Cancer Participating in a Community-Based Exercise Program: An Exploration of Meaning and Change
Increasingly, research supports the importance of incorporating exercise into the cancer care paradigm. While quantitative studies have substantiated the significant effects of exercise on physical functioning, the individual’s perspective of participating in an exercise program has rarely been considered. The purpose of this study was to explain the impact of a community based exercise program on the lives of persons with cancer and their caregi…
Communication and Culture in the Surgical Intensive Care Unit: Boundary Production and the Improvement of Patient Care
This ethnography explores communication around critically ill surgical patients in three surgical intensive care units (ICUs) in Canada. A boundary framework is used to articulate how surgeons', intensivists', and nurses' communication practices shape and are shaped by their respective disciplinary perspectives and experiences. Through 50 hours of observations and 43 interviews, these health care providers are found to engage in seven communicati…
Contextualizing the Education Effect on Women's Employment: A Cross-National Comparative Analysis
The authors examine how and why the effect of education on women's employment varies cross-nationally. First, they present a theoretical model that (a) outlines the micro-level mechanisms underlying education effects on women's employment in the couple context and (b) proposes contextual moderators at the country level. Second, they test the theoretical model against survey data from the United Nations' Generations and Gender Programme for 5 Euro…
One Step at a Time: A Journey of Hope, Inspiration, and Determination
Approximately three million persons in the United States face the challenge of living with Parkinson's Disease (PD). In spite of medical and surgical interventions, the disease progresses, resulting in bradykinesia, rigidity and postural instability that impair functional ability and quality of life. The purpose of this case study is to illuminate the impact an exercise program may have on an individual with PD. A single case study design was use…

Towards the Universal Care Course Model
The principle aim is to analyse care policies and mothers' employment patterns in Austria in comparison with The Netherlands and Sweden. While Sweden fosters a Universal Breadwinner Model, Austrian policies set incentives for mothers to organize private care for their children for a relatively long period of time, similar to the Caregiver Parity model. The Netherlands, approaching the Universal Caregiver model, support part-time integration into …
Ideals or compromises? The attitude-behaviour relationship in mothers' employment
This article addresses the marked variations in women's employment that exist within and across countries, with a specific focus on mothers of children below school-going age. Using comparative survey data for 26 countries, it investigates the determinants of maternal employment behaviour with women's attitudes as important predictors, alongside cost–benefit considerations and the influence of national context factors. Results show that mothers' …
Household employment patterns in an enlarged European Union
Our aim is to contribute to better understanding of why different practices relating to the division of paid labour by sex in couple households are still to be found in different parts of Europe. We analyse data on the distribution of dominant household employment patterns in eight countries: Bulgaria, the Czech Republic, Hungary, the Netherlands, Romania, Slovenia, Sweden, and the United Kingdom. Using comparative survey evidence for a large tot…
The Work-Care Balance: Is it Possible to Identify Typologies for Cross-National Comparisons
This article explores the relationship between work, care and gender equality on a theoretical level to develop multifaceted and dynamic models both within a country, as well as cross-nationally. It is necessary to go beyond static single-country classifications and do country clustering. Existing models are synthesized with five new types of work-care balance as theoretical baseline: the traditional breadwinner and modified breadwinner model, th…
