Abstract

The exact meaning of “sustainable work” remains unclear. Its various dimensions have so far been explored mainly in separate literatures, while the political implications of calls for “sustainable work” have received little attention. This Special Feature points to the need for an integrated approach that addresses the political conflicts raised by the concept, its different dimensions and their potential. Our introduction discusses how the various contributions to the Special Feature shed light on these different dimensions and their political nature.
