Zusammenfassung:"In Fighting for Time, editors Cynthia Fuchs Epstein and Arne L. Kalleberg bring together a team of distinguished sociologists and management analysts to examine the social construction of time and its importance in American culture." "Fighting for Time challenges assumptions about the relationship between time and work, revealing that time is a fluid concept that derives its importance from cultural attitudes, social psychological processes, and the exercise of power. Its insight will be of interest to sociologists, economists, social psychologists, business leaders, and anyone interested in the work-life balance."--BOOK JACKET.
