title: Regulating Labour in the Wake of Globalisation: New Challenges, New Institutions (Columbia-London Law Series)
author: Cynthia Estlund
description: ...what this truly fascinating collection shows is the results of a wholly effective and successful collaboration between highly respected scholars from North America and Europe in the field of labour law and regulation. The valuable comparative insights are inescapable and persuasive...This book is highly recommended reading for anyone involved or interested in the field of labour/employment law. It may, might I be so bold as to venture, even change your mind on how the workplace, globally, nationally or locally, should be regulated...What this extremely useful volume does is start progress on the long path towards seeking legitimacy and values for standards-setting and dialogue in the workplace in the wake of the unceasing tide of globalisation. A great testament to Bercusson's legacy to labour law. Stephen Hardy King's Law Journal Vol 19, Issue 3, 2008 ...Firstly, it brings together two large groups of experts from both sides of the Atlantic, each with its respective intellectual tradition, analytical style and legal culture permeating every page of this book. Secondly, it provides a vivid and topical contextual snapshot of the struggles and challenges faced by contemporary societies in their quest to adapt to this ever-changing ' brave new world ' we live in. Nicola Countouris Industrial Law Journal Vol. 37, No. 3, September 2008 Bercussson and Estlund's book is mostly superior to other publications addressing similar subject matter...Overall, the volume paints a detailed portrait of the cutting edge of public policy research about labor market management...Bercusson and Estland's is an important work...I have no hesitation in praising the book's substance. If you want to develop a sophisticated appreciation of labor market management options in the modern world and, at the same time, receive a re-education about labor-market institutions, Bercusson and Estland's new publication should not be ignored.
