The priority that we should attach to meaningful work has been contested in both rights-based/liberal and welfare/socialist traditions. To make the case for meaningful work in these traditions is first to overcome objections from within these traditions themselves concerning the conceptual validity of meaningful work, and the impact its prioritization might have on other valued goods. For virtue traditions, however, no such obstacles obtain. Undertaking meaningful work in the company of others is necessary if we are to learn to order our desires and develop virtues. The social embodiment of virtue traditions depends on internal relationships between the type of work required of us, the range of goods such work enables us to appreciate, and the qualities of character required for their realization. This chapter outlines the importance of meaningful work to the virtue traditions and draws on recent empirical research which provides support for their central contentions.
在以权利为基础的/自由主义和福利/社会主义传统中,我们应该优先考虑有意义的工作,这一点一直存在争议。要让这些传统中有意义的工作成为现实,首先要克服这些传统内部关于有意义工作概念有效性的反对意见,以及它的优先顺序可能对其他有价值的商品产生的影响。然而,对于美德传统来说,没有这样的障碍。如果我们要学会控制自己的欲望和培养美德,在他人的陪伴下从事有意义的工作是必要的。美德传统的社会体现取决于我们所需要的工作类型、这种工作使我们能够欣赏的商品范围以及实现这些工作所需的品格品质之间的内在关系。本章概述了有意义的工作对美德传统的重要性,并借鉴了最近的实证研究,为他们的中心论点提供了支持。

Exploring work Orientations and Cultural Accounts of Work 探索工作取向和工作的文化解释

Work orientations and cultural accounts of work are important dimensions of the meaningful work literature. This chapter addresses the question of what makes work worth doing, arguing that accounts of meaningfulness should be more closely based in societal culture and the dominant work orientations manifest in varying cultural settings. It differentiates between a “realization” perspective on meaningful work which emphasizes need fulfillment, and a “justification” perspective which involves the ability to account for one’s work as worthy. This is particularly relevant for understanding how culture influences meaningful work through fostering orientations that promote a sense of meaningfulness. Culture can “push” individuals by promoting specific cultural values and beliefs, or alternatively enable individuals to “pull” particular perspectives from a range of options. Individuals can also create a shift in cultural meanings at the collective level. Some important unanswered questions about meaningful work are identified, to guide future researchers in the field.
工作取向和对工作的文化描述是有意义工作文献的重要维度。本章讨论了什么使工作值得做的问题,认为对有意义的描述应该更紧密地基于社会文化和在不同文化环境中表现出来的主导工作取向。它区分了有意义的工作的“实现”观点(强调需求的满足)和“证明”观点(涉及说明一个人的工作是有价值的能力)。这对于理解文化如何通过培养促进意义感的取向来影响有意义的工作尤为重要。文化可以通过促进特定的文化价值观和信仰来“推动”个人,或者使个人从一系列选择中“拉”出特定的观点。个人也可以在集体层面上创造文化意义的转变。确定了一些关于有意义工作的重要未解问题,以指导该领域未来的研究人员。

Does My Engagement Matter? 我的订婚重要吗?
Pub Date : 2019-01-10 DOI: 10.1093/OXFORDHB/9780198788232.013.20

This chapter articulates the link between employee engagement and meaningful work, acknowledging the complexity of this task against a backdrop of confusion over the precise meaning of engagement, which remains a contested and potentially exploitative construct. The chapter highlights the limitations of the predominant conceptualization of engagement as a positive, active, work-related psychological state, arguing that this encourages a focus on performance-related outcomes at the expense of a deeper understanding of the individual experience, context, and processes of engagement. Reverting to William Kahn’s original theory of personal role engagement as being fostered by the experience of meaningfulness, it is argued that individual engagement is associated with the fluctuating interpretation of whether or not a situation can be construed as meaningful. Thus, engagement and meaningfulness, while not synonymous, are symbiotically linked.
本章阐述了员工敬业度和有意义的工作之间的联系,承认在敬业度的确切含义混乱的背景下,这一任务的复杂性,敬业度仍然是一个有争议和潜在剥削的结构。本章强调了将敬业度定义为积极、主动、与工作相关的心理状态的主流概念的局限性,认为这鼓励了对绩效相关结果的关注,而忽略了对个人体验、背景和敬业度过程的更深入理解。回到威廉·卡恩(William Kahn)最初的个人角色投入理论,即个人角色投入是由有意义的体验所促进的,有人认为,个人投入与对一种情况是否可以被解释为有意义的波动解释有关。因此,参与度和意义虽然不是同义词,但却是共生的。

Accounting for Meaningful Work 核算有意义的工作
Pub Date : 2019-01-10 DOI: 10.1093/OXFORDHB/9780198788232.013.23
Matthew Hall
Although the concept of meaningful work has not been addressed in accounting research, accounting scholars and practitioners have long grappled with how to reflect the value of employees and human capital in organizational accounts. This chapter examines how the features of a typical accounting system are likely to impact the treatment of meaningful work in organizations, including consideration of only its potential financial value, the exclusion of unpaid forms of meaningful work, and the limits on recognizing meaningful work as an organizational asset because quantifying its value is typically considered too subjective. It also examines how internal accounting and control practices, such as performance measurement and reward systems, tend to either ignore the possibility of meaningful work or focus on controlling and harnessing its instrumental value to improve organizational performance, thus downplaying its role in expressing values, fulfilling personal needs, and generating and sustaining meaning in our lives.
尽管有意义工作的概念尚未在会计研究中得到解决,但会计学者和从业人员长期以来一直在努力解决如何在组织账户中反映员工和人力资本的价值。本章考察了典型会计系统的特征如何可能影响组织中对有意义工作的处理,包括仅考虑其潜在的财务价值,排除无报酬形式的有意义工作,以及由于量化其价值通常被认为过于主观而将有意义工作视为组织资产的限制。它还研究了内部会计和控制实践,如绩效衡量和奖励制度,倾向于忽视有意义工作的可能性,或专注于控制和利用其工具价值来提高组织绩效,从而淡化了其在表达价值观,满足个人需求以及在我们的生活中产生和维持意义方面的作用。

Does Corporate Social Responsibility Enhance Meaningful Work? 企业社会责任能促进有意义的工作吗?
Pub Date : 2019-01-10 DOI: 10.1093/oxfordhb/9780198788232.013.25
Marjolein Lips-Wiersma
This chapter examines the argument that corporate social responsibility (CSR) creates opportunities for meaningful work. The chapter develops a conceptual framework that integrates five different perspectives: personal responsibility; meaningful job characteristics; dignity and freedom; worthy work; and strong sustainability. However, while these conditions are necessary they are not sufficient, in themselves, to create more opportunities for meaningful work in a CSR context. Specific contextual features need to be in place to support meaningful work. These include an ethical corporate culture, embedded CSR, bottom-up CSR, CSR driven by human and planetary well-being, and an intent to move to a post-CSR paradigm.
本章探讨了企业社会责任(CSR)为有意义的工作创造机会的论点。本章发展了一个概念框架,整合了五个不同的观点:个人责任;有意义的工作特征;尊严和自由;有价值的工作;以及强大的可持续性。然而,虽然这些条件是必要的,但它们本身并不足以在企业社会责任背景下创造更多有意义的工作机会。需要有特定的上下文特性来支持有意义的工作。其中包括道德企业文化、嵌入式企业社会责任、自下而上的企业社会责任、由人类和地球福祉驱动的企业社会责任,以及转向后企业社会责任范式的意图。

Meaningful Work and Family 有意义的工作与家庭
Pub Date : 2019-01-10 DOI: 10.1093/oxfordhb/9780198788232.013.29
Evgenia I. Lysova
Experiencing one’s work as meaningful is often assumed to benefit the individual, yet some scholars suggest that meaningful work can also be a very challenging experience, requiring individual sacrifice. These sacrifices may be borne by the family of the individual. The chapter reviews and integrates research on meaningful work, calling, and work–family interplay to better understand how the pursuit of meaningful work impacts one’s family. In so doing, it challenges overly positive perspectives on the outcomes of meaningful work, while revealing the scarcity of empirical research on the topic. To stimulate future research, person-related conditions are discussed, such as family role salience and identification, and harmonious passion and obsessive passion, in facilitating positive versus negative spillover between the work and family domain. The chapter concludes with a discussion of organization-related conditions shaping how meaningful work influences one’s family.
人们通常认为有意义的工作对个人有益,但一些学者认为,有意义的工作也可能是一种非常具有挑战性的经历,需要个人做出牺牲。这些牺牲可能由个人的家庭承担。本章回顾并整合了有关有意义的工作、召唤和工作-家庭相互作用的研究,以更好地理解追求有意义的工作如何影响一个人的家庭。在这样做的过程中,它挑战了对有意义的工作结果过于积极的看法,同时揭示了对该主题的实证研究的稀缺性。为了促进未来的研究,本文讨论了与个人相关的条件,如家庭角色突出和认同、和谐激情和强迫激情,在促进工作和家庭领域之间的积极和消极溢出方面的作用。本章最后讨论了组织相关的条件如何塑造有意义的工作影响一个人的家庭。

Fostering the Human Spirit 培育人文精神
Pub Date : 2019-01-10 DOI: 10.1093/OXFORDHB/9780198788232.013.18

This chapter introduces a positive ethical framework for supporting the experience of meaningfulness at work. Three specific virtues are conceptually linked to meaningfulness (humanity, courage, and transcendence) and a number of character strengths that these encompass (such as morality, gratitude, and spirituality). It is argued that experiencing meaningfulness is more likely to result in the experience of positive emotions, contributing to a positive ethical culture at work and producing a “virtuous upwards spiral” of positive agency. Positive emotions attract more support and facilitate positive social relations inside and outside the workplace. Evidence about the links between meaningfulness and volunteering are explored in turn to consider what organizations might do to foster positive work culture. The chapter recognizes the potential for conflict and paradox between virtues and character strengths. However, even paradoxes and conflicts of this kind can generate positive experiences.
本章介绍了一个积极的道德框架,以支持工作中有意义的体验。三种特定的美德在概念上与意义(人性,勇气和超越)以及这些美德所包含的许多性格力量(如道德,感恩和灵性)联系在一起。有人认为,体验有意义更有可能导致积极情绪的体验,有助于在工作中形成积极的道德文化,并产生积极代理的“良性上升螺旋”。积极的情绪能吸引更多的支持,促进工作场所内外积极的社会关系。关于意义和志愿服务之间的联系的证据反过来被探索,以考虑组织可以做些什么来培养积极的工作文化。这一章承认了美德和性格力量之间潜在的冲突和矛盾。然而,即使是这种矛盾和冲突也能产生积极的体验。

Bringing Political Economy Back In 让政治经济学回归
Pub Date : 2019-01-10 DOI: 10.1093/oxfordhb/9780198788232.013.27
M. Thompson
This chapter argues that the current literature on meaningful work underplays and mostly overlooks the importance of institutional arrangements in structuring opportunities for meaningful work. It sets out different theories of comparative institutionalism (rational choice, historical, sociological, and constructivist) and explores their implications for future research on meaningful work. Three pathways are identified for promoting meaningful work: (1) develop institutional arrangements that encourage social actors to cooperate to develop meaningful work as a societal goal, supported by an enabling state; (2) strengthen collective bargaining and employee representation; and (3) develop social movement strategies drawing together academics, policymakers, employer organizations, consultants, social media, and commentators to shape a new discourse and wider societal narrative on the importance of opportunities for meaningful work.
本章认为,目前关于有意义工作的文献低估了,而且大多忽视了制度安排在构建有意义工作机会方面的重要性。它阐述了比较制度主义的不同理论(理性选择、历史、社会学和建构主义),并探讨了它们对未来有意义工作研究的影响。本文确定了促进有意义工作的三种途径:(1)制定制度安排,鼓励社会行为者合作,将有意义的工作作为一个社会目标,并得到国家的支持;(2)加强集体谈判和员工代表;(3)制定社会运动策略,将学者、政策制定者、雇主组织、顾问、社交媒体和评论员聚集在一起,就有意义的工作机会的重要性形成新的话语和更广泛的社会叙事。

Meanings and Dirty Work 意义和肮脏的工作
Pub Date : 2019-01-10 DOI: 10.1093/oxfordhb/9780198788232.013.13
R. Simpson, N. Slutskaya, Jason Hughes
This chapter examines the provocative nature of “dirty” or “tainted work” as a source of meaningful work. It considers different sources of meaningful work, including work characterized by intersubjective, self-actualized, or stigmatized dimensions. To explore this further, it draws on Bourdieu’s concepts of habitus (predispositions), hexus (character), and doxa (beliefs) to propose a scheme of meaning-making in which tainted work serves as a source of meaningfulness. However, where many approaches often focus on the career choices people make, here the wider contextual factors are also considered of two “dirty” jobs in the UK—street sweeping and refuse collecting. The chapter examines the traditional meaning-systems in these roles that echo agential choices but also structural constraints within a neoliberal system that places lower symbolic value on this work and those who do it.
本章探讨了“肮脏”或“受污染的工作”作为有意义工作来源的挑衅性质。它考虑了有意义工作的不同来源,包括以主体间性、自我实现或污名化维度为特征的工作。为了进一步探讨这一点,它借鉴了布迪厄的习惯(倾向)、hexus(性格)和doxa(信仰)的概念,提出了一种意义创造的方案,在这种方案中,受污染的工作可以作为意义的来源。然而,许多方法往往关注人们的职业选择,这里更广泛的背景因素也被认为是英国两种“肮脏”的工作——街道清扫和垃圾收集。本章考察了这些角色中的传统意义系统,这些系统反映了代理选择,但也反映了新自由主义体系中的结构性约束,这种体系对这项工作和从事这项工作的人的象征性价值较低。

The Meaningful City 意义之城
Pub Date : 2019-01-10 DOI: 10.1093/OXFORDHB/9780198788232.013.28
Dr Ruth Yeoman
This chapter applies the value of meaningfulness to a philosophy of the city. It argues that philosophies of the city can supply smart and sustainable city initiatives with human values and attention to the common good which they currently lack. By bringing the value of meaningfulness into a description of city-making, the chapter shows how city people have responsibilities to make the city when the activities of social cooperation associated with discharging such responsibilities are constituted by freedom, autonomy, and dignity, and when the social interactions of meaning-making are just. The features of an ethico-normative architecture which is capable of promoting city-level meaningfulness are specified. These include three core elements: public meaningfulness; the society of meaning-makers; and agonistic republicanism. City-making organized to manifest these features will generate a rich diversity of meaning sources on which city people can draw to craft meaningfulness in life and in work.
本章将意义的价值应用于城市哲学。它认为,城市哲学可以提供智慧和可持续的城市倡议,具有人类价值观和对共同利益的关注,这是他们目前所缺乏的。本章通过将意义的价值引入对城市创造的描述,展示了当与履行这种责任相关的社会合作活动由自由、自主和尊严构成时,当意义创造的社会互动是公正的时,城市人是如何有责任创造城市的。指出了能够促进城市层面意义的伦理规范建筑的特征。这包括三个核心要素:公共意义;意义制造者社会;以及敌对的共和主义。有组织地体现这些特征的城市建设将产生丰富多样的意义来源,城市人可以利用这些来源来创造生活和工作中的意义。

It argues that philosophies of the city can supply smart and sustainable city initiatives with human values and attention to the common good which they currently lack. By bringing the value of meaningfulness into a description of city-making, the chapter shows how city people have responsibilities to make the city when the activities of social cooperation associated with discharging such responsibilities are constituted by freedom, autonomy, and dignity, and when the social interactions of meaning-making are just. The features of an ethico-normative architecture which is capable of promoting city-level meaningfulness are specified.
