New Directions in Labour Regulation Research

Abstract

This volume is an international and interdisciplinary response to the most influential account of the role and significance of labour market regulation, namely that derived from orthodox economic theory. It also responds to the most prominent alternative to the orthodox narrative: the contention that the central objective of labour and development policies, including in their regulatory dimensions, should be to realize and sustain ‘decent work’. In recent years, these theoretical and normative approaches have galvanized research on labour market regulation. This volume highlights certain of the more significant and novel developments reflected in these literatures. The aim is to feature innovative ideas and approaches, new subjects and debates, and theoretical perspectives and methodologies that characterize contemporary research on labour market regulation. In doing so, it is hoped that this book will enrich and advance the academic and policy debates on post-crisis labour regulation. These keywords were added by machine and not by the authors.
