Book Synopsis Experiencing Wages by : Peter Scholliers

Download or read book Experiencing Wages written by Peter Scholliers and published by Berghahn Books. This book was released on 2003-09-01 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When discussing wages, historians have traditionally concentrated on the level of wages, much less on how people were paid for their work. Important aspects were thus ignored such as how frequently were wages actually paid, how much of the wage was paid in non-monetary form - whether as traditional perquisites or community relief - especially when there was often insufficient coinage available to pay wages. Covering a wide geographical area, ranging from Spain to Finland, and time span, ranging from the sixteenth century to the 1930s, this volume offers fresh perspectives on key areas in social and economic history such as the relationship between customs, moral economy, wages and the market, changing pay and wage forms and the relationship between age, gender and wages.
