Opis

This volume explores the societal goals behind labour laws - through an analysis of normative justifications and critiques - and examines what actions are needed to better advance these goals, by way of purposive interpretation and legal reform.

Recenzje

This book provides a welcome reappraisal of labour law as a discipline. Davidov's approach reminds labour lawyers that 'laws are meant for a reason' and that only by understanding the historic role that labour law has played can we understand its place and purpose today. A Purposive Approach to Labour Law is a book about what law should and could be.
