Subjektivierung von Arbeit zwischen Selbstverwirklichung und Selbstausbeutung (BestMasters)
by Friederike GlaubitzDieses Buch gibt Einblicke in die historische Entwicklung des Wandels von Arbeitskraft aus Sicht der arbeits- und industriesoziologischen Forschung und beleuchtet dabei die Gründe für die spätmodernen Anforderungen an und Einforderungen von Lohnarbeitenden. Aufgrund von Strukturwandel und einem Paradigmenwechsel in der Arbeitsorganisation ab den 1970 / 80er Jahren erfordert die postmoderne Lohnarbeit von den Arbeitssubjekten verstärkt das Einbringen von subjektiven Potenzialen. Dabei sind z. B. Selbststrukturierung, -kontrolle und -ökonomisierung, aber auch eine unternehmerische Denkweise und motiviertes Arbeitshandeln gefragt, um die Tätigkeiten der heutigen Zeit ausführen zu können. Ab dem gleichen Zeitpunkt werden auf Beschäftigtenseite Ansprüche laut, die ebenfalls auf die Einbringung subjektiver Potenziale in die Lohnarbeit abzielen: Selbstentfaltung und -verwirklichung, die Vereinbarkeit von Arbeit und Privatleben sowie das ‚qualitativ gute Leben‘ werden gefordert. Beide Tendenzen werden arbeitswissenschaftlich als ‚doppelte Subjektivierung‘ zusammengefasst und in der vorliegenden Arbeit im Detail betrachtet sowie Chancen und Risiken dieser Entwicklung erörtert.

Successful Doctoral Training in Nursing and Health Sciences: A Guide for Supervisors, Students and Advisors
by Debra Jackson Patricia M. Davidson Kim UsherThis textbook is a practical, user-friendly and essential guide for doctoral students, their supervisors and advisors and administrators of doctoral programs in nursing and health sciences. Nurses and health scientists have a relatively young tradition of doctoral training, and this means students often come to doctoral studies without a clear understanding of what is required to be successful at this level of education. Supporting students to successful completion of doctoral studies involves a complex fusion of skills, and yet researchers and academics receive little specialist training in this crucial area of teaching and learning. Strong pedagogies around doctoral supervision and writing are essential because in addition to the scientific, research and educative skills required, it is important to be able to establish and maintain enabling professional relationships within which both parties can thrive, and that can withstand the years of critique needed for doctoral work. The authors offer supervisors, advisors, students and administrators practical advice on helping students thrive, and steering them through various challenges that can arise during doctoral candidature. With a focus on nursing and health sciences, the authors take a global approach, recognising the international focus of doctoral training in nursing and health sciences. The authors of this book are experienced supervisors and advisors to doctoral students and together, have well over 100 successful doctoral completions and more than 1000 publications. They draw on a series of interviews and case studies to share their knowledge and experience and provide insights and guidance to inspire and support student progression and ensure students get the most out of their doctoral studies.
