Towards new figures of the wage-earner: Between individual trajectories and societal contexts.

Summary This book focuses on populations confronted with the recomposition of employment and work norms at work in recent decades: young generations entering the workforce, migrant workers, workers in gray areas of employment, educated workers in new services confronted with Taylorized and low-wage work, especially in call centers. The book seeks to answer the following two questions: what experiences do these populations have of transformations in the labor market? In return, what can these "worker figures" teach us about the dynamics of the wage relationship and the new segmentations that are taking place within the workforce in France, but also in comparison with the transformations taking place in other countries, including South American countries?
