Publisher's Synopsis

Martin Luther is seen as the inventor of the modern concept of vocation. No longer only the clergy, but everybody has a vocation. Vocation has become secular. In a Protestant view vocation and occupation coincide. But how up to date is the concept of vocation? How relevant is it, if you are considering the changing world of work, the divisions in labour market, the increasing contributions of volunteers? The essays in this volume examine the concept of vocation from different point of views - the confessional perspective of Lutheran, reformed and catholic theology as well as the perspective of ethics and vocational education. A special emphasis is put on the volunteer engagement and the perspective of long term unemployed. This book is completed by a gallery of portraits, in which 'called' people are presented - contemporaries who present their own perspective on vocation.
