The lived worlds of unemployment

By Celine Aubry

Sociological research on unemployment has developed particularly since the 1980s. Exclusion and long-term unemployment are intrinsically linked. Unemployed people are rarely able to free their words, their experiences and their feelings. Beyond job deprivation, adjacent comorbidities are recurrent. For the majority of the unemployed, they don't know where to turn for help. Social support is a palliative to stressful situations, and can help build resilience. The aim of this book is to examine the means used to accelerate the social and professional reintegration of the unemployed, particularly the long-term unemployed. Is there a correlation between a lack of social support and long-term unemployment? Conversely, does qualitative social support facilitate faster reintegration? We'll be looking at how the unemployed feel about the support they receive, both from those close to them and from institutions. We will also identify the repercussions of vulnerability factors in their daily lives, and the impact of social support on their well-being.
