Thesis (M.A.)--University of Calgary (Canada), 1998.

This thesis explores the impact of the "New Economy" on individuals in Calgary. Ethnographic research was conducted in four settings and interviews were used to elicit narratives of people's work histories and perspectives on work and their lives. These accounts are used to examine how people viewed their economic situations. A judgement sample was used to examine a wide range of individuals, providing for exploratory rather than representative results.

520 $a This thesis explores the impact of the "New Economy" on individuals in Calgary. Ethnographic research was conducted in four settings and interviews were used to elicit narratives of people's work histories and perspectives on work and their lives. These accounts are used to examine how people viewed their economic situations. A judgement sample was used to examine a wide range of individuals, providing for exploratory rather than representative results.
520 $a The use of social networks emerged as a main theme in the data, along with the tendency for personal interests to direct what an individual saw as important in their economic life. Expressions of concern in the form of fear or anxiety over one's current economic situation or future common in the discussion of the New Economy were largely absent. It is suggested that Calgary's economic history and labour market conditions at the time of the study influenced these perceptions.
