Labor and Globalization

Edited by: Prof. Dr. Christoph Scherrer

Globalization is a major challenge for working people and their organizations. Globalization is intensifying competition among workers around the world, thereby undermining working conditions in many places. Adequate responses to this challenge require rigorous scholarly inquiry. The book series includes reports on the impact of globalization, particularly on vulnerable workers, their resistance, and policy options at various levels to address decent work deficits. It is a forum for outstanding dissertations as well as other outstanding monographs, postdoctoral theses, research reports, and edited volumes from the global multidisciplinary network of nine partner universities on four continents with union collaborations, the International Center for Development and Decent Work (ICDD).
