Desde que el derecho de adaptación de la jornada por motivos de conciliación de la vida laboral y familiar fue incorporado a nuestro ordenamiento en 2007, su configuración ha ido evolucionando hasta la versión del artículo 34.8 del Estatuto de los Trabajadores que hoy está vigente. El presente estudio examina en profundidad este precepto en su redacción actual, así como la intrínseca vinculación que mantiene con los derechos constitucionales a la igualdad y a la protección de la familia (arts. 14 y 39 CE). La ordenación estatal se conecta asimismo con la regulación comunitaria de las fórmulas de trabajo flexible en la Directiva 2019/1158/UE, de 20 de junio, de Conciliación de la vida familiar y la vida profesional de los progenitores y los cuidadores. Especial atención se presta además a las reglas procesales que ordenan las reclamaciones sobre el derecho de adaptación, en lo relativo a aspectos como los plazos, la modalidad procesal, la acumulación de la acción de daños y perjuicios y el acceso a los recursos. Igualmente se analizan las cláusulas sobre la materia que con más frecuencia aparecen en los convenios colectivos vigentes. Y se ponen de relieve, a lo largo de todo el estudio, los criterios expresados por los Tribunales Superiores de Justicia en la ya abundante doctrina de suplicación que interpreta la ordenación actual del derecho de adaptación, una vez que han transcurridos ya algunos años desde la última reforma que tuvo lugar a través del Real Decreto Ley 6/2019.

This book offers a radical critique of mainstream, Marxist and feminist economic theories, ranging from the classical liberal economics of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries to the feminist debates about domestic labour and patriarchy in the late twentieth century. It explores the increasing importance of household care relations, especially childcare, in shaping the domestic labour process. Trends in household gender relations and working patterns in Britain are explored in the context of political ideas and policies regarding the state, the economy, gender and care.

A New York roofer requests payment in cash. A Bogota car mechanic sets up "shop" on a quiet side street. Four Mexican immigrants assemble semiconductors in a San Diego home. A Leningrad doctor sells needed medicine to a desperate patient. All are part of a growing worldwide phenomenon that is widely known but little understood. The informal or underground economy is thriving today, not only in the Third World countries where it was first reported and studied but also in Eastern Europe and the developed nations of the West. The Informal Economy is the first book to bring together studies from all three of these settings and to integrate them into a coherent theoretical framework. Taking an international perspective, the authors dispel a number of misconceptions about the informal economy. They make clear, for instance, that it is not solely a province of the poor. Cutting across social strata, it reflects a political and economic realignment between employers and workers and a shift in the regulatory mission of the government. Throughout, the authors' theoretical observations serve not only to unify material from diverse sources but also to map out directions for further research.
