SOC 4280 - Identities at Work


Fall. 4 Credits.

R. Galperin.

This course focuses on how people define themselves through their jobs, through the content of their work and through the organizations in which they work. Readings in this course relate work identity to economic and social outcomes on the level of individuals, teams, organization, and markets. The course begins with the classic perspectives on work identity from industrial sociology and the Chicago school. The course then focuses on the role of status, gender, emotions and professionalism, considering perspectives from disciplines like economics and social psychology, in addition to sociology.
