Bibliogr.
"Labor market success is a crucial aspect of social inclusion in today's societies. Migrants and women have long been excluded from access to the labor market, from advancing in their careers, or they have been pushed into certain segments of the labor market, such as precarious and/or part-time work. The special issue analyzes these mechanisms of discrimination both at the national and the supranational level as well as at company level. In studying discrimination of women and racialized minorities from an institutionalist, a comparative or an intersectional perspective the contributions shed light on the multi-level governance of labor market discrimination."
