Concilier Flexibilite Du Travail Et Cohesion Sociale

This, the second volume on labour flexibility, deals with how it can be reconciled with social cohesion. Following the Council of Europe's Forum 2005: Reconciling labour flexibility with social cohesion, it aims to present ideas useful for political action for integration with the European social model. It is divided into three parts. The first looks at the framework of reconciliation and describes the complexity of uncertainty and changes in the structure of labour markets. The second part is entitled the space for reconciliation and covers mobility, social protection, the quality of transitions and the quality of family life. The final part covers the methodology of reconciliation, including the model proposed by the Council of Europe.

This volume on labour flexibility invites readers to question the effects of labour market institutional and organisational reforms on social cohesion. The Council of Europe suggests reconciling social cohesion with the inevitable changes wrought by globalisation, namely the reorganisation of the parameters governing competition. This reconciliation should take into account the essential political value of democratic security, to be found firstly in employment; the high social and societal cost of precariousness attests to this. However, security should not imply rigidity. It should rather translate into societal recognition of a "right to transition" which calls for co-responsibility on the part of all social actors and stakeholders. Reconciliation is more than a political duty, it is a prerequisite for the stability necessary for social sustainability. It should therefore raise awareness of the need to find new ways of fairly sharing the costs and benefits such transitions create. -- Council of Europe.

Ce volume sur la flexibilité du travail pose la question des effets des réformes institutionnelles et organisationnelles du marche du travail sur la cohésion sociale. Le Conseil de I'Europe recherche la conciliation entre ce qui est inévitablement imposé par la mondialisation, c'est-à-dire la réorganisation des paramètres de la concurrence, et la cohésion sociale.La conciliation doit prendre en compte une valeur politique essentielle, la sécurité démocratique, qui se trouve d'abord dans I'emploi: le coût social et sociétal élevé de la précarité le confirme. Néanmoins, sécurité ne signifie pas rigidité et doit se traduire plutôt par la reconnaissance sociale d'un «droit à la transition» qui appelle à la coresponsabilité de tous les acteurs sociaux.La conciliation est plus qu'un devoir politique: elle est le prix de la stabilité qui assure la durabilité sociale. Elle doit ainsi amener à une prise de conscience du besoin de nouvelles formes de partage équitable des coûts et des bénéfices générés par les transitions.

The "European Yearbook" promotes the scientific study of nineteen European supranational organisations, including the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD). Each volume contains a detailed survey of the history, structure and yearly activities of each organisation and an up-to-date chart providing a clear overview of the member states of each organisation. In addition, a number of articles on topics of general interest are included in each volume. A general index by subject and name, and a cumulative index of all the articles which have appeared in the "Yearbook," are included in every volume and provide direct access to the "Yearbook"'s subject matter. Each volume contains a comprehensive bibliography covering the year's relevant publications. This is an indispensable work of reference for anyone dealing with the European institutions.

The concepts of well-being for all and of responsibility borne by all are fundamental to the definition of social cohesion propounded by the Council of Europe and bring a fresh dimension to the ideas of freedom, choice and preference. This book suggests ways in which we can develop inclusive and concerted opinions on the subject of well-being.

Even though the work place has become significantly more flexible in the former socialist countries of central and Eastern Europe, the ideas on "flexicurity" and strategies of reconciliation are usually only developed in the context of the western European welfare states. However, when considering the differences of the transformation process, it is important go beyond a one-size-fits-all strategy. The realities of central and Eastern Europe and their social institutional systems must be taken into account. This volume contributes to filling this gap and to starting a pan-European reflection on the concepts and issues of labor flexibility and social cohesion. It contributes to the understanding the specificities of certain realities in Central and Eastern Europe, including Turkey, in order to conceive adequate strategies for conciliation.--Publisher's description.
