Resumen de From dualization to continuum. Exploring dimensions of Outsiderness in Southern Europe.

Lara Maestripieri, Antonio Firinu

• In this paper we advance an original theoretical proposal for analysing the consequence of deregulation in Southern Europe labour markets. Instead of conceptualizing dualization as a binary combination of insiders/outsiders, we propose a model that explores different dimensions of outsiderness along a continuum of positions from the core to the margins of the labour market.

  Assuming an intersectional perspective, we analyse these trends in six Southern European countries characterised by different timing of labour market reforms, different welfare regimes, and different economic performances along the crisis (Spain, Italy, France, Austria, Croatia, Greece). Our main source will be the European Labour Force Survey microdata (2000-2016), aiming at identifying involuntary non-standard work characterised by a potential risk of contractual misuse.
