Exploring the capability approach in comparative research on individual working lives A CAPRIGHT Workshop, 24-25th 2008 SOFI, GOETTINGEN, Germany The European Integrated Project CAPRIGHT (short for "Resources, rights and capabilities: In search of social foundations for Europe", CIT4-CT-2006-028549) is organising a workshop related to the cross-national analysis of individual working lives under the aspects of collective resources and employment quality. The agenda of the working group on individual working trajectories uses the capability approach promoted by Amartya Sen as a sensitising concept to evaluate employment and social protection programmes according to the sets of options and choices - or capabilities - they provide for individuals' professional trajectories. This public workshop has the objective to discuss questions that arise from applying the capability concept to life course research and from comparing findings on working lives for different countries. The CAPRIGHT working group hopes to benefit from an exchange with other eminent researchers in this field invited as speakers or participants. See Program here-below.
