Work Time is a sociological overview of a complex web of relations that shapes much of our experience of work and life yet often goes without critical examination.Cynthia Negrey examines work time past and present, exploring structural economic change and the gender division of labor to ask: what are the historical, cultural, public policy, and business sources of current worktime practices? Topics addressed include worktime reduction in the US culminating in the 40hour statute of 1938, recent trends in annual and weekly hours, overtime, parttime work, temporary employment, workfamily integration, and international comparisons. She focuses on the US in a global context and explores how a new political economy of work time is taking shape.This book brings together existing knowledge from sociology, anthropology, history, labor economics, and family studies to answer its central question and will change the way upperlevel students think about the time we devote to work.
