- Cíle předmětu
- This course is designed to encourage students to address what causes inequality in labour markets, from the conventional explanations related to stratification, technological change, globalization, and institutional approaches which have been gaining prominence in this field. The course examines economic structures, social class, gender, ethnicity, family dynamics, political restructuring, and their influence on paid and unpaid work in contemporary Western countries, as well as other societies. Students explore how these processes are related to inequalities within a specific country. The course will evaluate the effectiveness of various policies that have been or could be implemented to address inequality. Specifically, it will focus on the role of education and skill development policies in reducing inequality.
