Living memory has witnessed the unparalleled transformation of the ‘workspace’ of the Maltese Islands. The edited volume Working Life and the Transformation of Malta documents and critiques this transformation in fascinating detail from 1960 to current times, with contributions from the fields of history, sociology, human resources and more.
Join volume editors Dr Manuel Debono and Prof. Godfrey Baldacchino for the launch, as well as to pay tribute to Prof. Edward Zammit, whose work helped to form, and shed light on this dynamic period.
