This volume challenges this image by attending to the extra-organizational and extra-individual forces that shape and constrain how work is structured in organizations. The authors focus their attention on work within and between organizations and emphasize the ways in which the jobs are defined, the power and autonomy they engender, the opportunities that are afforded, and the constraints that are imposed, are continuously contested not only at the individual level, but also at a more aggregate and collective level. This volume is the product of an interdisciplinary gathering of scholars convened with generous support of the Canadian Social Science and Humanities Research Council. It presents new theoretical and empirical papers that examine aspects of the changing nature of jobs and work in organizations from multiple perspectives and methodologies.0 aPrint version record 7aBusiness & EconomicsxOrganizational Behavior.2bisacsh957296 7aOrganizational theory & behaviour.2bicssc957297 0aCorporate culture.957445 0aPersonnel management.9574591 aCohen, Lisa E.9617771 aBurton, M.
