Information

Aims, contents and method of the course

The New Economy is changing work and employment relations fundamentally. As paid work is still a decisive mode of integration in our society, an important part of economic education is to prepare secondary school students for these new work-life conditions. A critical, didactical discussion of the foundations and problems characterising current as well as future work-based societies is the key objective of this seminar.
Further goals related to this subject are:
• Developing expertise on the subject through relevant literature.
• Studying and evaluating case studies on connecting economical, societal and political learning.
• Relating basic concepts identified in the new curriculum for geography and economics (academic secondary school, upper level) to the changes happening in work-based societies, e.g.: work/production/consumption, interests/conflicts/power, markets/regulations and deregulations, growth/crisis and contingencies.
• Designing, reflecting on and assessing competence-oriented teaching and learning arrangements on the subject.
Specific topics:
• Work and individual integration in society
• Work-organisation in the New Economy
• Features of such a new work-society from the perspectives of the employees and the employers respectively
• The role of unions and organised labour in the New Economy (focusing on Europe)
• Shaping labour through political processes
Methods:
- Reading and reflecting the compulsory literature
- Presentations by the lecturer
- Individual and group assignments (different formats)
- Discussions
- Expert interviews
- Developing and presenting a full (group-)assignment on a partial aspect of the class
