The Globalization and Labor Standards (GALS) Annotated Bibliography is
a compendium of articles about international labor rights, national
and transnational labor standards, and comparative labor law that have
been published in law journals. All of the articles in the library are
abstracted and cross-referenced by subject. Each article is
accompanied by an annotation that describes its contents clearly and
concisely. The annotations have been written by Professor Katherine
V.W. Stone with the help of her students at the Cornell Law School,
the Cornell School of Industrial and Labor Relations, and UCLA School
of Law. This volume compiles all of the content in the GALS
bibliographic library from 2000 to 2014. The purpose of the book is to
preserve the wealth of material developed over the past fifteen years
and make it available to libraries and researchers. The GALS database
has been used by lawyers, businesses, labor unions, organizations,
individuals, non-profit organizations, the World Bank, the
International Labor Organization, and numerous governmental entities
in more than 140 countries. Katherine V.W. Stone is the Arjay and
Frances Miller Professor of Law at UCLA School of Law. Her scholarship
and teaching is primarily in the fields of labor law, arbitration law,
contracts, and comparative labor law. She received a Guggenheim
Fellowship Award and a Russell Sage Fellowship for her work on the
changing nature of employment and the regulatory implications. Her
book, From Widgets to Digits: Employment Regulation for the Changing
Workplace (Cambridge University Press in 2004) won the 2005 Michael
Harrington Award from the American Political Science Association for
the "outstanding book that best links scholarship to struggles for
justice in the real world", and was named Finalist for the 2005 C.
Wright Mills Award from the Society for the Study of Social Problems.
Her most recent book, Rethinking Workplace: After the Standard
Contract of Employment, published in 2013, examines the changing
employment landscape in ten industrialized nations and describes some
initiatives to counteract the deterioration of job security and the
employment-linked safety net.
