Workplace equality in Europe : the role of trade unions by Anna, Paraskevopoulou, Sonia, McKay

“…It considers theoretical issues of equality and diversity, the role of EU legislation, multiple discrimination and exclusion and disadvantage in the labour market in relation to the role of trade unions, and addresses central questions about the actions and challenges faced by trade unions in promoting equality in the workplace and in implementing anti-discrimination policies at local, national and European levels. With research spanning 34 European countries and extending to over 250 interviews and 15 case studies, Workplace Equality in Europe examines the impact of a period of economic crisis on workplace diversity, exploring forms of inter-union cooperation at European and international levels and shedding fresh light on the processes that lead some trade unions to adopt equality policies while others remain reluctant to develop or expand policies in this area. …”

Futurism: performance and performativity of a movement by Scarso, Jacek Ludwig

“…Performance interventions span across the history of this movement (Goldberg, 2011): from the notorious 'serate' instigated by Marinetti, in which the audience would be purposefully scandalised, provoked and offended, to the futurist music concerts that provided an ancestral root for the aesthetics of synthesised sound in contemporary music (Rodney, 1976), not to mention the Russian counterpart of this movement, which embraced, on stage, such wide a field as to encompass theatre, opera, dance, music and scenic design. …”
