This book brings together leading international authors from a number of fields to provide an up-to-date understanding of part-time work at national, sector, industry and workplace levels. The contributors critically examine part-time employment in different institutional settings across Europe, the USA, Australia and Korea. This analysis serves as a prism to investigate wider trends, particularly in female employment, including the continued increase in part-time work and processes that are increasingly creating dualisation and inequality between 'good' and 'bad' jobs.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"This rich collection, with contributions from leading scholars, broadens our understanding of part-time work in contemporary labour markets. The study of the politics of part-time work - at different levels and in a wide range of countries and its consequences for the quality of work and work-life balance - offers an invaluable contribution to scholars and students in the field."-- "Anne Lise Ellingsæter, University of Oslo"<br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Heidi Nicolaisen is a Researcher at the Fafo Institute for Labour and Social Research, Norway.
