A Double Career Structure and Reduced Recognition in Aging Institutions JF - Forum Qualitative Sozialforschung / Forum: Qualitative Social Research JA - FQS VL - 9 IS - 1 SE - Thematic Issue DO - 10.17169/fqs-9.1.317 UR - https://www.qualitative-research.net/index.php/fqs/article/view/317 SP - AB - The occupation is a relationship of appropriation, which is only realized in relationships of recognition between organization and work. The organization includes its members by a mutual exchange of benefits, which is referred to as a relationship of recognition. The basic rule of the mutuality of relationships of recognition is called into question in knowledge-based organizations of "aging institutions." The limited reciprocity of the "closed opportunity structure" is the result of an institutional reduplication of a career policy under the pressure of innovations. A response to this is a change of individual career strategies. The article focuses on the consequences for the development of careers and competencies. URN: urn:nbn:de:0114-fqs0801592 ER -
