Work and work experiences rank highly among human values. Work provides structure, supplies financial opportunities, and shapes both career aspirations and personal satisfaction. Attitudes toward work, moreover, influence society’s welfare and operations.

This volume of The ANNALS investigates what socialization processes and qualities of parents, schools, and work places are important in the development of work attitudes, paying particular attention to intergenerational transmission of work attitudes and values. By looking at the determinants of work values and their concurrent effects on politics, the economy, and personal well-being in a number of European countries, this volume offers an improved understanding of work values and their significance to the social sciences, and illuminates how such improved knowledge can influence public policy.

Gerbert Kraaykamp is Professor in Empirical Sociology at the Department of Sociology/ICS, Radboud University Nijmegen, The Netherlands. His research interests include educational and health inequality, cultural capital effects and lifestyle differentiation. Jale Tosun is professor at the Institute of Political Science at Heidelberg University in Germany. She coordinated the CUPESSE (Cultural Pathways to Economic Self-Sufficiency and Entrepreneurship: Family Values and Youth Unemployment in Europe) project from 2014 to 2018. Her work concentrates on comparative public policy, international and comparative political economy, public administration, and European integration.
