Abstract

Partant du principe que l’amélioration du travail contribue à l’amélioration des sociétés, le défi qu’entend mettre en évidence l’introduction de ce numéro spécial de Transfer: European Review of Labour and Research , consiste à déterminer ce qui rend le travail meilleur, ou pire, et comment il est possible de l’améliorer. Alors que des expériences très variées contribuent à façonner l’avenir de nos économies et de nos communautés, l’un des principaux enjeux consiste à s’engager dans un apprentissage partagé de ces processus afin de stimuler un dialogue entre l’aspiration à un meilleur travail et les conditions susceptibles de entraver ou de faciliter cette amélioration du travail. Cette démarche veut nous inciter à dépasser une conception étroite de la qualité de l’emploi pour adopter un point de vue plus large sur la manière dont les acteurs du monde du travail élaborent des stratégies, innovent et intègrent l’incertitude dans leur quête de solutions durables pour un travail de meilleure qualité. Les principaux thèmes de discussion sont les suivants : pourquoi le travail doit être meilleur (alors qu’il est souvent pire) ; pourquoi un meilleur travail permet-il d’améliorer les sociétés ; comment améliorer le travail ; quel est le rôle des institutions dans cette amélioration du travail ; comment, enfin, les stratégies syndicales sont-elles essentielles dans les processus d’expérimentation destinés à améliorer le travail.
