Jobs on the Move: An Analytical Approach to 'Relocation' and Its Impact on Employment
ISBN: 9789052014487 / Angielski / Miękka / 2018 / 243 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) In recent years, throughout Europe, increasing concerns have been raised about the relocation of production and jobs. Workers and unions in the EU-15 are worried about the rise of 'relocation' as it can lead to a massive exodus of well-paid jobs to countries with lower wages or less stringent labour regulations and a weakening of labour's bargaining position and thus to a downward spiral of wages and working conditions. For the new member states of the EU on the other hand, foreign direct investment (FDI) is a key driver of technological change and higher living standards.

ISBN: 9789052011103 / Miękka / 2003 / 259 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) European law is an increasingly important factor in the development and implementation of national and local health policy. Yet for many it remains shrouded in mystery. The situation with regard to laws impacting on health care is especially problematic as, typically, consequences arise from policies designed primarily to address problems in other sectors, which then establish general principles whose applicability to health care only becomes apparent once interpreted by rulings of the European Court of Justice. This book, written with the health and social policy community in mind, provides...

ISBN: 9789052013657 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 265 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) This book aims at deepening our understanding of concrete, topical developments in the growth of social partnership economies. Inspired by the theory of 'policy learning', it discusses the impact of potential triggers, such as wars and economic crises, on the development of consultative arrangements, questioning how policy adjustments came about and what exactly made them possible. What is the space for policy learning in institutional environments that are notorious for immobility and path-dependency? Different national case studies analyse the origins and development of different social...

ISBN: 9789052018751 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 262 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) Democracy is not merely a political and legal system; it depends on social and economic commitments as well.
Democracy is not only realized through elections; it requires civic participation through permanent dialogue. This volume addresses this central, yet often overlooked, issue in a series of essays by renowned scholars from Europe and the United States, reviving a concept that dates back to the foundation of the European Union: social dialogue as a fundamental part of the construction of the union. Having neglected the social dimensions of its institutions, the European Union is... Democracy is not merely a political and legal system; it depends on social and economic commitments as well.

European Solidarities: Tensions and Contentions of a Concept
ISBN: 9789052013633 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 355 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) When Europe was Western Europe and socially rather cohesive, the question of economic integration through free market exchanges for labour, commodities and services was not a major problem. The integration of markets was hardly recognised as a real threat to social cohesion.
Europe became EU27 and may become EU30: the economic market integration underpins the social problems because of the much bigger differences in Europe in terms of social standards. Capital looking for cheap labour could of course mitigate the differences over time. Job opportunities in low wage parts of Europe might...

This book analyses the transnationalisation of collective bargaining by European trade unions, presenting key theoretical concepts and debates on the Europeanisation of collective bargaining and social dialogue.
The author uses comprehensive empirical evidence to illustrate that trade union strategies can be linked to sector-specific economic, institutional and actorrelated factors.

Quality of Employment in Europe: Legal and Normative Perspectives
ISBN: 9789052018881 / Angielski / Miękka / 2018 / 289 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) Since 2001, 'quality of employment' has been at the core of the political, academic and practical agenda, and has fed a wide-ranging debate. For the first time, a scientific work takes stock of the legal and normative understanding of quality of employment in Europe. In order to develop an interdisciplinary dialogue, the book underlines the importance of law in the debate on quality of employment and suggests how European concepts and tools might be adapted to enrich scientific reflection by employing a rigorous legal approach. To this end, the authors analyse the relevance of the concept of...

Politiques Sociales / Social Policies: Enjeux Méthodologiques Et Épistémologiques Des Comparaisons Internationales / Epistemological and Methodologica

La multiplication des recherches comparatives internationales, notamment europeennes, contraste singulierement avec le peu de reflexion sur leur epistemologie et sur les questions de methode. C'est a ce manque que cet ouvrage cherche a remedier en s'appuyant sur l'experience d'historiens, de sociologues, de politistes et d'economistes de divers pays europeens. Comment ces chercheurs construisent-ils la comparabilite de leurs objets ? Quel role les langues jouent-elles dans la clarte de la comparaison ? Comment depasser l'opposition entre universalisme et relativisme culturaliste ? Telles sont...

Precarious Employment in Perspective: Old and New Challenges to Working Conditions in Sweden
ISBN: 9789052017303 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 309 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) In recent scholarship, the notion of precarious employment has become increasingly important when exploring challenges to working conditions in various contexts. Both scholars and stakeholders have highlighted the multifaceted character of this phenomenon in different countries, regions and labour markets.
This book explores the emergence of precariousness in Sweden, a country that has traditionally been held up as an example when it comes to the advantages of powerful pro-labour parties and employment security. The essays provide historical and international perspectives on the...

A European Social Citizenship?: Preconditions for Future Policies from a Historical Perspective
ISBN: 9789052012698 / Angielski / Miękka / 2004 / 361 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) The aim of this book is to explore and reflect upon preconditions of a specific European social dimension, or more specifically of a European social citizenship. Welfare and social policies in Europe are deeply entrenched in state histories; the success of the welfare state stems from its ability during a fairly long historical period to unify social citizenship, full employment, mass education and a functional industrial relations system. The historical connection between welfare regimes built upon the nation state, and popular democracy founded in party voting, makes the deepening and...

Wage and Welfare: New Perspectives on Employment and Social Rights in Europe
ISBN: 9789052012148 / Angielski / Miękka / 2005 / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) This book presents an original multidisciplinary conceptual framework for the analysis of the processes of construction/transformation of workers' social rights. The framework was developed by taking an analysis of employment and social protection in the Latin European countries as starting-point, and thus offers an innovative alternative to the dominant approaches. It takes account of the institutional forms determining employees' resource flows and associated rights, and introduces a new analytical category of resource regimes. Four spheres are identified for the observation of recent...

Restructuring Representation: The Merger Process and Trade Union Structural Development in Ten Countries
ISBN: 9789052012537 / Angielski / Miękka / 2004 / 414 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) Throughout the industrialised world trade unionists are reforming their organisations as part of a strategy to adjust to new labour market, economic and political circumstances. This volume examines the role of merger activity in this process of reform. The book identifies the pattern of merger activity, the factors that promote its development and its impact on union structure and governance. Most merger activity is shown to originate in some adverse environmental change, such as membership decline. Furthermore, there is little evidence to suggest that mergers have improved union performance...

Democracy and Capabilities for Voice: Welfare, Work and Public Deliberation in Europe
ISBN: 9789052018676 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 248 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) Social rights in terms of welfare and work are disappearing from the European political agenda, the more so as austerity is assumed to be the only imperative response to the financial crisis. This book, which collects the results of the leading European integrated research project CAPRIGHT (Resources, Rights and Capabilities: In Search of Social Foundations for Europe), argues for an alternative way out, which puts the enhancement of citizens' capabilities at the core of the European social model. The contributors show why and how a democracy grounded in economic and social life - where a...

Industrial Relations in Small Companies: A Comparison: France, Sweden and Germany
ISBN: 9789052013602 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 229 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) Reference is often made to small companies, but little is known about them, especially regarding industrial relations. How can small companies be defined? Is their small size a sufficient feature for them to be considered the same? If they are different from each other, what makes them so? Is the distinction between them and other companies - big ones - relevant? In what way is life organised in such units, where employer and employees are in very close contact with each other? In order to answer these questions, the authors of this innovative book carried out surveys together in France,...

The Wage Under Attack: Employment Policies in Europe
ISBN: 9782875740298 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 293 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) Challenging the widespread view of the continental model of social protection as a corporatist-conservative system, this book stresses the creative thrust of the two major institutions of the Bismarckian tradition: the social contribution that finances the socialised wage, and the qualification system that liberates workers from the labour market. These institutions have come under attack over the past two decades via European Employment Strategy policies aimed at imposing the Beveridgean model. And the European Union is using the current economic crisis to justify stepping up this reform...

Que peuvent donc faire les gouvernements face a des acteurs economiques et des marches financiers qui se gaussent des regles et des realites nationales ? Sur un versant plus positif, l'Europe a nourri l'espoir d'un espace commun qui transcende les interets des nations.
