| Abstract | |
This dissertation deals with the universe of the discouraged unemployed", reflecting on the issue of a culture of work", a culture of employment" and the question of embededness. The exposition begins with a brief consideration about the different ways of measuring the phenomenon of unemployment and follows on introducing seven histories of work an adult male, two adult female and four young people. The examination of these histories allows us to collect several elements which serve to illuminate the values and practices that are related to work and employment cultures. Also, they can instruct us about the limits and the possibilities that are given at the present time for us to reinvent the terms with regard to work, having as reference individuals everyday life. At last, we come to the conclusion that discouraged unemployed" can mean, in sociological terms, the uneasy experience of understanding within the private sphere the sense of all those fast changes that are happening on labors world.
