description This article presents an overview of the theoretical stance within the BMBF-funded project "geste - Educational Aids as Work on the Common Good - Between Effect-Oriented Management and Equal Participation in Germany and England", focussing on the subproject of sociology of work.

This perspective enables a critical stance concerning employees' participation with regard to their working conditions that is discussed for the German case.
