Inequalities in neo-mutualistic professional organisations : the boundary work of creative workers in Italy / Lucciarini, Silvia (Sapienza University of Rome) ; Pulignano, Valeria (KU Leuven University) ; Maestripieri, Lara, ed. (Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona)

Analysing the actions of individuals and organisations and how they influence each other is key to understanding their implications in terms of differentiation 'within' and 'between' professions, in the dual sense of a growing division of labour, and also rising inequalities amongst workers operating in the same occupational ecosystem but in different professional fields.
