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. 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...

The Wage Under Attack: Employment Policies in Europe
ISBN: 9782875740298 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 293 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. 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...

This book aims at deepening our understanding of concrete, topical developments in the growth of social partnership economies.

Different national case studies analyse the origins and development of different social...

This book by a number of eminent scholars and experts is the first to attempt to answer this question.
The adoption in June 2010 by EU leaders of a target to lift at least 20 million people out of the risk of poverty and exclusion by 2020 is an important step forward. However, delivering on this and the Union's four other mutually reinforcing targets, and achieving the EU's ambitious social objectives, raises many...

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. 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...

In order to answer these questions, the authors of this innovative book carried out surveys together in France,...

Jobs on the Move: An Analytical Approach to 'Relocation' and Its Impact on Employment
ISBN: 9789052014487 / Angielski / Miękka / 2008 / 243 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. 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.

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.

The Impact of Eu Law on Health Care Systems: Second Printing
ISBN: 9789052011066 / Angielski / Miękka / 2003 / 314 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. The expanding scope of European law in areas that impinge on health care, coupled with a greater awareness by individuals and organisations within the European Union of the rights that this confers on them, has created new tensions. It throws into relief the challenge of ensuring that progress in developing an internal market enhances rather than undermines consumer safety and social protection. Resolving this challenge has become more important as the social dimension of what was first conceived as primarily an economic union has become more prominent.

Austerity and the Implementation of the Europe 2020 Strategy in Spain: Re-Shaping the European Productive and Social Model: A Reflexion from the South
ISBN: 9782807604360 / Angielski / Miękka / 2017 / 340 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. This book adopts a critical perspective to analyze the Europe-2020 Strategy and its effects on the transformation of the European productive and social model, particularly in Spain. The evidence provided in this book suggests that the Europe-2020 strategy cannot be dissociated from the policies of commodification initiated in the Stability and Growth Pact (Maastricht, 1997) nor from the Austerity measures implemented to deal with the financial crisis in 2007. These policies of "commodification" and "austerity" are seriously limiting Europe-2020 capacity to foster a smart,...

In the face of the challenge of economic competition in increasingly globalised markets, regulating the management of occupational risk is a central aspect of strategies for both social protection and employability in the European Union.

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...
