The Transformation of Employment Relations in Europe (eBook, ePUB)

Institutions and Outcomes in the Age of Globalization
Redaktion: Arrowsmith, Jim; Pulignano, Valeria

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Since the 1980s, the process of European economic integration, within a wider context of globalization, has accelerated employment change and placed a new premium on 'flexible' forms of work organization. The institutions of employment relations, specifically those concerning collective bargaining between employers and trade unions, have had to adapt accordingly. The Transformation of Employment Relations focuses not just on recent change, but charts the strategic choices that have influenced employment relations and examines these key developments in a comparative perspective.
