Product Information

The majority of American workers experience unemployment, and millions get trapped in devastating long-term unemployment. Drawing on interviews with unemployed workers, job recruiters, and career coaches, The Stigma Trap explains how the stigma of unemployment can render past educational and professional achievements irrelevant, leaving all American workers--including the most highly educated--vulnerable to getting trapped in unemployment. Eye-opening andclearly written, The Stigma Trap is essential reading for anyone who has experienced unemployment, has a family member or friend who is unemployed, or who wants to understand the forces that underlie theanxiety-filled lives of contemporary American workers.

Reviews
"A cogent argument against the 'myth of meritocracy.' . . . A well-researched study that should interest job seekers of all varieties." -- Kirkus Reviews "The Stigma Trap reveals that the problem of not being able to get a job unless you have a job extends well into the white collar workforce where it perpetuates misery. A profoundly important story in a world with perpetual layoffs." -- Peter Cappelli, Author of Our Least Important Asset: Why the Relentless Focus on Finance and Accounting is Bad for Business and Employees"What if the ultimate insurance policy against unemployment no longer works? Some 12 percent of long-term unemployed jobseekers hold professional degrees. And the older they get, the harder it gets, as company officials reason, 'Oh that guy wouldn't be happy here; he's overqualified.' With a minimal safety net to compensate for lost income, and a missing safety net against lost dignity, some of our best and brightest face a hidden crisis. As Ofer Sharone argues, this is a crisis for its unemployed victims and it also casts a giant question mark over the core belief that we can all make it if we really try. Brilliant, surprising, important." -- Arlie Russell Hochschild, Author of Strangers in Their Own Land: Anger and Mourning on the American Right"A deeply moving, analytically rigorous account of the human damage so often suffered by the long term unemployed-a fate that can befall any of us at any time. The Stigma Trap offers a powerful critique of the myth of meritocracy." -- Steven Vallas, Professor of Sociology, Northeastern University"Ofer Sharone has written a landmark book that exudes heartfelt empathy and deep insights into the stigma of long-term unemployment in the United States. This deeply researched book is both scholarly and powerfully moving as it describes the painful stigma that has such a corrosive impact on the lives of unemployed adults and their families. The book includes much needed advice about how unemployed people (and their support systems) can counteract the insidious nature of internalized stigma and how society can change the vicious cycle that creates unemployment and internalized stigma. I enthusiastically recommend this book-it will change how you think about work, unemployment, and affirm the importance of treating everyone with decency and dignity." -- David L. Blustein, Co-editor of Rethinking Work: Essays on Building a Better Workplace"Through engrossing in-depth interviews, Sharone demonstrates the unnecessary suffering that comes with unemployment, not just material deprivation but the cultural stigma that makes searching for a job not only hard work but self-defeating-shameful, humiliating, isolating, corroding relations within the family and among friends and destroying self-esteem. Self-help therapies for the unemployed presume a mythical meritocracy and misrecognize stigma as a sign of weakness. Sharone practices a radical alternative treatment that calls for confronting the stigma through an emancipatory social movement. In demystifying the misery of unemployment, The Stigma Trap is itself transformative. A piercing critique of American ideology!" -- Michael Burawoy, Professor of Sociology, University of California, Berkeley"Ofer Sharone's deeply researched book on the devastating stigma suffered by unemployed American workers shines a bright light on a dark corner of the American economy. His in-depth interviews reveal that even the most well-prepared job seekers struggle to find good jobs after they are laid off." -- Carl Van Horn, author of Working Scared (Or Not at All): The Lost Decade, Great Recession, and Restoring the Shattered American Dream, "A cogent argument against the 'myth of meritocracy.' . . . A well-researched study that should interest job seekers of all varieties." -- Kirkus Reviews "The Stigma Trap reveals that the problem of not being able to get a job unless you have a job extends well into the white collar workforce where it perpetuates misery.
