The Second IOS Annual Conference on “Labour in East and Southeast Europe: Institutions and Practices Between Formality and Informality” will be held from June, 26-28.
Work is one of the most essential aspects of life – both from the viewpoint of individuals and the society as a whole. It is a social practice where life-courses intersect with power hierarchies, ideologies, institutional regulations, and economic forces. The impact of formal and informal institutions on the functioning of labour markets is well documented and varies considerably across time and space.
