Nous signalons ici la publication de deux articles qui touchent aux thématiques traitées et développées par le réseau ARTS1) Ursula Henz , Colin Mills (2015) Work-Life Conflict in Britain: Job Demands and Resources European Sociological Review Vol 31, issue 1, Pp 1-13AbstractThis article examines the influence of job demands and job-related resources on the experience of two dimensions of work-life conflict (WLC) in Britain. Theory suggests that higher levels of resources should reduce WLC but empirical analyses often fail to find this effect. We address the issue by examining the impact of a wide range of resources as well as their interactions with job demands. Analyses of the Working in Britain 2000 survey suggest that job resources and demands affect WLC through different processes, which differ for the two types of WLC. They fail to find evidence that job resources dampen the effects of job demands on WLC. They also document that many effects of job characteristics depend on context or vary by gender, for example, the effects of job pressure and job autonomy.L'article est accessible sur le site de la revue European Sociological Review&#160;2) Karon Gush (2015) Households’ responses to spousal job loss: ‘all change’ or ‘carry on as  usual’? Work Employment &#38; Society October 2015 vol. 29 no. 5 703-719AbstractEconomic theory suggests that when a primary earner within a couple loses their job, one potential response is for the secondary earner to seek additional paid work to bolster their household finances. The empirical quantitative evidence regarding any such ‘added worker effect’ is mixed, and, to investigate why this might be, the article explores processes behind couples’ responses to job loss. Drawing on in-depth qualitative interviews conducted with a purposive sample selected from theUnderstanding Society Innovation Panel, the analysis examines: (a) anticipation surrounding job loss and job search responses; (b) the extent to which couples adopt long- or short-term labour market perspectives; and (c) whether couples seek to preserve their established division of paid and unpaid labour or re-configure their joint labour supply. Findings indicate that the use of additional spousal labour is only one response among many alternatives and it is typically invoked in cases of serious financial hardship.L'article est accessible sur le site de la revue Work Employment and Society
