Questa introduzione al numero monografico riflette su come la digitalizzazione sta cambiando la qualità del lavoro e della vita lavorativa. Anzitutto, cercando di andare oltre a letture polarizzate e deterministiche, ricostruiamo il dibattito scientifico prestando particolare attenzione ai processi di soggettivizzazione che si intrecciano con le nuove tecnologie, e le forme di controllo e di autonomia che esse introducono. Sulla base della nostra lettura dei contributi raccolti, l’articolo offre poi una riflessione sui concetti e gli strumenti metodologici utilizzati e individua piste di ricerca futura per l’analisi del modo in cui le tecnologie digitali trasformano il lavoro e la qualità della vita lavorativa.;

Keywords:Digitalizzazione, qualità della vita lavorativa, controllo, soggettività
