This book is a collection of case studies which illustrate the wide range of work regulation.
The case studies cover a diversity of workers from both developed and developing countries, formal and informal economies and both public and private work spaces.
As well as exploring the various forms of regulation the studies also assess the failings of traditional labour law.
A useful and interesting study for all those interested in labour law.
Original research and theory on the relations between law, legal institutions and social processes.
The volumes in this series are eclectic in their disciplines, methodologies and theoretical perspectives, but they all share a strong comparative emphasis. The volumes originate in workshops hosted by the Onati International Institute for the Sociology of Law.
