Employability is attracting growing attention from researchers and practitioners alike given the contemporary employment landscape – one characterized by technological changes, ageing populations, and competitive organizational environments. This interest is in part motivated by the realisation that employability implies a win-win situation as employable workers have stocks of knowledge, skills, and abilities, and they are flexible and open to change. However, the role of the employer and specifically their investments in Human Resource Management policies and practices are largely absent in the current employability discourse. Employability is usually regarded as an individual asset in which employees carry almost all responsibility for employability maintenance and development. Remarkably little has been done to remedy the neglect of the employer perspective and advance knowledge and practice.This book brings together contributions from an international team of renowned management scholars who explore how Human Resource Management investments affect workers’ employability. Drawing on empirical evidence from all over the world, this book informs researchers, practitioners, and students in the fields of business and management, especially those with a particular interest in HRM and organizational behaviour.The chapters in this book were originally published as a special issue of The International Journal of Human Resource Management.

The criminal justice system in America is as powerful a shaper of history and society as its better-known counterparts--the military, politics, government, and technology. In a country that lacks a mandatory death sentence for specific crimes, the American strategy for execution proves to be based more upon distinctions between offenders than upon distinctions between offenses.Five important novels--McTeague, An American Tragedy, Native Son, In Cold Blood and The Executioner's Song--bring readers a vivid awareness of America's punitive codes. Each details the story of a life that leads to the gallows. Sentenced to Death places these works against the historical background of crime and capital punishment in America, a nation where public discourse on crime is dominated by images of the electric chair and the gas chamber, by maximum security prisons, by hardened convicts out on parole. Such images, in turn mirror and shape the exercise of punitive power.This probing look at capital punishment in execution novels and in real-life media accents the poles of punitive power. Such a comparison of literary works with confrontational journalism and court records also brings revealing insight into the long-term debate on capital punishment in American culture.
