Abstract

The review deals with the publication and analysis of the main provisions of the new collective monograph “From precarious employment to precarization of life” (ed. RAS Zh.T. Toshchenko. Moscow: Ves’ Mir, 2022), written by the staff of the Federal Research Sociological Center of the Russian Academy of Sciences, the Russian State University for the Humanities, the National Research Institute of Trust, Dignity and Law. On the pages of that peer-reviewed work, the reader learns about the key features and specifics of the public and private life world of the precariat, about the precarization of the quality of the main spheres of life (labor, social sphere, public and political life, cultural and everyday life), about the degree of precarization in the health care system, science and higher education. As in previous collective monographic works (which have gained undoubted success), the new work, based on numerous both primary and secondary data, reflects new trends and ideas about the precariat. The present work is addressed to a wide range of readers and will be very useful not only to professional academic sociologists, but also to all those who care about the study of the lifestyle of individuals in the realities of the current socio-economic structure of society.
