SDG 8: Decent Work and Economic Growth

The global Economics community is urgently focused on questions of decent work, fair wages, access to opportunities and jobs, access to labor markets, and more. While always important, the Covid pandemic has made even clearer just how crucial these questions are.

Below you will see hand-picked examples of recent work economists have published across Springer Nature’s portfolios, including Springer and Palgrave, spotlighting key work in the quest to expand fair economic opportunities, and decent work, for all.

SDG Series

Explore the latest releases in the SDG book series based around SDG8 below. 

The SDG Series is Springer Nature’s inaugural cross-imprint book series that addresses and supports the United Nations’ seventeen Sustainable Development Goals. The Series is the first at Springer Nature to publish books under both the Springer and Palgrave Macmillan imprints, bringing the strengths of our imprints together. 

The Series is organized into eighteen subseries: one subseries based around each of the seventeen respective Sustainable Development Goals, and an eighteenth subseries, “Connecting the Goals,” which serves as a home for volumes addressing multiple goals or studying the SDGs as a whole. Each subseries is guided by an expert Subseries Advisor with years or decades of experience studying and addressing core components of their respective Goal.
