Through a series of empirical studies, it sheds light on changes in the occupational structure and the ways in which these changes interact with other societal trends, such as increased temporary employment, rising migration and decreased unionization, whilst also exploring changes in the evaluation of occupations and attitudes towards trade unions. Drawing on distinctly sociological perspectives, it shows how transformations in society and the labour market have affected conditions for individuals and considers whether these changes reinforce existing inequalities occasioned by polarisation or create new ones. \u003cem\u003eScrutinising Polarisation\u003c\/em\u003e considers whether and how the Swedish labour market has polarized - and, if so, what this means for individual employees and labour organizations. It will therefore appeal to scholars with interests in the sociology of work and professions, social inequalities and labour market transformations.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Open Access version of this book, available at http: \/\/www.taylorfrancis.com, has been made available under a Creative Commons Attribution-Non Commercial-No Derivatives (CC-BY-NC-ND) 4.0 license.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThomas Berglund \u003c\/strong\u003eis Professor of Sociology at the University of Gothenburg, Sweden.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eYlva Ulfsdotter Eriksson \u003c\/strong\u003eis Professor of Sociology at the Linnaeus University in Växjö, Sweden and affiliated professor at the University of Gothenburg, Sweden.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 210\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.48 x 9.21 x 6.14 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIllustrated:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e August 29, 2025\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46959113666735,"sku":"9781032536361","price":88.74,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0723\/7314\/1679\/files\/GPYhhwcKPQ9781032536361.webp?v=1779523057","url":"https:\/\/valuevaultclub.myshopify.com\/products\/scrutinising-polarisation-patterns-and-consequences-of-occupational-transformation-in-the-swedish-labour-market-paperback","provider":"Value Vault Club","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
