    Winner of the Society for the Anthropology of Work book prize 2017 This volume presents a global range of ethnographic case studies to explore the ways in which - in the context of the restructuring of industrial work, the ongoing financial crisis, and the surge in unemployment and precarious employment - local and global actors engage with complex social processes and devise ideological, political, and economic responses to them. It shows how the reorganization and re-signification of work, notably shifts in the perception and valorization of work, affect domestic and community arrangements and shape the conditions of life of workers and their families.

    We analyze cooperation within a company setting in order to study the relationship between cooperative attitudes and financial as well as non-financial rewards. In total, 910 employees of a large software company participate in an incentivized online experiment. We observe high levels of cooperation and the typical conditional contribution patterns in a modified public goods game. When linking experiment and company record data, we observe that cooperative attitudes of employees do not pay off in terms of financial rewards within the company. Rather, cooperative employees receive non-financial benefits such as recognition or friendship as the main reward medium. In contrast to most studies in the experimental laboratory, sustained levels of cooperation in our company setting relate to non-financial values of cooperation rather than solely to financial incentives.

    As a part of the demutualization process, stock exchanges are transformed from a traditional membership (mutual) structure into an entrepreneurial structure. Changes in the legal and organizational structure take place and they diversify their activities in order to meet the market needs. Statistical data confirm that two thirds of stock exchanges are of for-profit type and as many as 40% are listed exchanges. But we cannot conclude that stock exchanges, after the demutualization process and going public, operate more efficiently than the stock exchanges not subjected to these processes. On the other hand, analyzing the structure of the products on stock exchanges, it may be noticed that most of the exchanges have a diversified range of services. However, it should be emphasized that the activity of stock exchanges is partly seen as a public good even if they are managed by private people. But the efficiency increase of stock exchanges does not necessarily translate into the quality increase of their socio-economic functions and short-term pursuit for profits may pose a threat to the functioning of the economy and society.

    In this paper we attempt to investigate the importance of certain external factors on the investment decision among Polish companies. With the use of data from the tailored made Survey on Receivables we examine factors influencing investment decisions of companies in Poland, assess the relation between the branch and company size and importance of the factors and finally we determine the relative influence of these factors on the actual investment reductions. The results showed that first, although the problem of payment delays is the most important single reason determining the investment decisions of Polish companies, its importance decreases when analyzed simultaneously with other reasons. Second, there are two driving forces determining the investment decisions of Polish companies, namely macroeconomic factors and law-related factors with the relative importance of the former lower than the latter. Third, there is a positive association between the importance attached to factors influencing investment decisions associated with either macroeconomic or legal environment and the investment reductions, meaning that companies facing higher investment reductions are also more prone to notice and value the factors influencing these decisions.
