Rezensionen

"this well executed and timely work will provide a welcome addition to anyone working in the field of labour relations, but also readers who wish to explore the way in which the Roman Catholic Church interacts with secular legal and political frameworks, especially in contexts which do not necessarily routinely grab headlines. The author has done an excellent job of presenting more than enough subtlety, originality and detail to satisfy experts in these areas, but has also produced a resource which non-specialists can positively engage with. I would highly commend this addition to the existing scholarship in this area."

Oscar Celador, Law and Justice, 187 (December 2021)

"[this book] provides a genuinely new and insightful contribution to our existing knowledge. It sheds new light on a neglected area of inquiry. In so doing, it invites the reader to reflect further on the interplay of faith and labour. ... In summary, Paul Beckett's fascinating book reveals an ethical and institutional relationship between the ILO and the Catholic Church. He sustains his argument that their links, both historical and contemporary, are neglected in much of the existing literature. ... More broadly, this original book illustrates the importance of labour law scholarship engaging with all dimensions to the relationship between religion and the workplace."

Professor Mark Bell, Industrial Law Journal, XXXX

"In this challenging book, Paul Beckett... provides detailed documentation for the parallelism and cross-influence between the ILO and the Holy See on behalf of workers' rights. As a careful lawyer and perceptive scholar, he presents convincing evidence that proves his case."
