520 | |a How are the working and living environments of young UN employees shaped in times of post-Fordism? Based on the perspective of young employees at the UN offices in Geneva and Vienna, the book deals with increasing flexibility and job insecurity.

It becomes clear that these developments are not a contradiction, but rather two sides of the same coin. | ||
