"The focus of this article is the concept of 'flexicurity', flexibility linked to social security. We shall Look at the issue in terms of the institutional framework in Germany and as an alternative to pure flexibilisation. The central elements are the four related concepts of (i) transitional labour markets, (ii) collective bargaining and working time policies which safeguard employment (iii) lifelong learning and (iv) provision for old age. These can be looked at from an analytical perspective, as well as in terms of the periods of employment and of post-employment. Furthermore, we deal with different forms of atypical employment in terms of the concept of flexicurity developed here." (author's abstract)... view less

"Im Mittelpunkt des Beitrages steht das Konzept der 'Flexicurity'; das Flexibilität mit sozialer Sicherheit verknüpft. Es wird hier auf die institutionellen Rahmenbedingungen der Bundesrepublik bezogen und als Alternative zur reinen Flexibilisierung diskutiert. Zentrale Elemente bilden die vier miteinander zu verbindenden Konzepte der Übergangsarbeitsmärkte, der beschäftigungssichernden Tarif- bzw. Arbeitszeitpolitik, des lebenslangen Lernens und der Grundsicherung. Diese lassen sich in analytischer Perspektive sowohl auf die Erwerbs- als auch auf die Nacherwerbsphase beziehen. Abschließend wird das hier entwickelte Konzept der Flexicurity auf die verschiedenen Formen atypischer Beschäftigung bezogen." (Autorenreferat)... view less
