Zustand: very good. The Hague : Eleven, cop. 2013. Paperback. xi,409 pp. illustrations. 24 cm. - The informal economy includes all those forms of economic and social relationships which escape state regulation. The book explores how people make choices and practice informality according to the available opportunities. Using empirical work, authors from across Europe look at different illegal or informal activities. They include legal and illegal markets, such as the selling of counterfeited goods and drugs, fruit picking, infrastructure construction, illegal wildlife and the illegal tropical timber trade, work in the hotel and catering sector, prostitution, stripping and street vending. The book aims to create a nuanced and empirically based approach in which the authors undertake critical analyses on the several ways informality operates within different societies and countries. It includes both economic analyses and detailed considerations of the social circumstances in different cities and countries. It shows how formal and informal work, legal and illegal trading (more often than not) overlap and are indistinguishable. The authors explore what the benefits (and disadvantages) are for workers in the informal economy - do they prosper, or is this survival work? In rapidly changing economic times the emphasis on topical empirical foundations is important and poses new challenges to workers Condition : very good copy. ISBN 9789462360563.

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - This book offers a sharp ethnographic immersion into the high-stakes world of nightclub security in Southern Italy. Following months of firsthand fieldwork, it uncovers how authority is truly negotiated beyond the velvet rope.Rather than focusing on physical intimidation, the narrative reveals how bouncers-often working-class men navigating insecure livelihoods-manage the night through social intuition and a 'principle of reality' that prizes neighborhood ties over formal law. The urban night emerges not as a space governed by policy, but by quiet transactions of respect and obligation. Here, success depends on mastering an unwritten map of who matters, who is connected, and how conflict can be defused without spectacle.Through vivid case studies, the book argues that extra-legal mediation is not a failure of the system, but the system itself: a flexible, human mechanism for preventing violence. Yet, this reliance on personal credibility over legal protection exposes bouncers to profound risk, turning their work into a precarious dance between belonging and liability in the nocturnal city.This book will be of interest to criminologists studying informal social control, urban sociologists, anthropologists, security professionals, and policy planners.…
