301050 Mobile Professionals. Transnational labour markets, careers and occupational cultures (S) (SoSe 2021)

Contents, comment

For a long time, the sociology of work assumed that labor markets were nationally constituted. However, today's globally networked world of work is increasingly characterized by phenomena that break the boundaries of the nation state and generate new global and transnational configurations of work and labor markets. Transnational labor migration of so called mobile professionals, be it managers, consultants, academics, journalists, development experts, artists, or other highly skilled professions has mainly contributed to such a ”cosmopolitisation of work” (Beck 2009).

In this seminar we will look at mobile professionals from three different angels:
1) We will look at the transnational labour markets these mobile professionals move in and the processes under which such transnational patterns emerge and are socially constituted.
2) We will look at the work and the mobile careers of such professionals and
3) we will look at the transnational occupational cultures that emerge in such transnational labour markets.

Seminar language is English.
