Research and teaching activities

In his work, Ludger Pries strives for an innovative integration of different theoretical-conceptual discussion threads with well-founded quantitative and qualitative empirical research. In his dissertation , he combined the theory of reflexive modernization, developed primarily by Ulrich Beck , with work and industrial sociological concepts of change in company work and organization. In his habilitation , he brought together European life course and biography research with the theory of the informal sector developed for countries in the South in the analysis of over 600 life courses and 30 biographies. In the concept of employment regulation, he combined classic industrial relations research with recent research on new social actor groups and transnational governance structures. He made innovative contributions to transnationalization and migration research and integrated them with concepts of organization, globalization and spatial sociology.
