Development, NGOs and Trade Unions: Terms of Engagement (Development in Practice Readers) - Softcover
Synopsis
This book considers the tensions between trade unions and NGOs, and the scope for dialogue and partnership between them. A continuing series of anti-globalisation protests, and conflicting views on core labour standards, corporate codes of conduct, and in particular the WTO, have placed civil society organisations at the centre of public debates on global governance. This book is broad in scope, with contributions from international labour lawyers, trade unionists, NGO campaigners, corporate-watchers, scholars, and activists. Authors are from organisations and institutions as diverse as the Development Policy Centre, Nigeria; NikeWatch Campaign; Union Aid Abroad; Social Accountability International; Women Working Worldwide; PSI Research Unit; War on Want; Friedrich Ebert Stiftung; and the Workers' Educational Association. Well-known contributors include Mark Anner, Cornell University, Lance Compa, Cornell University, Peter Evans, University of California at Berkeley, Neil Kearney, General Secretary of the International Textile, Garment and Leather Workers' Federation, Ruth Pearson, University of Leeds, Satendra Prasad, University of the South Pacific in Fiji. This is a new title in the DEVELOPMENT IN PRACTICE READERS series - each book offers a selection of articles and resources from the peer-reviewed international journal Development in Practice, and constitutes an essential guide to cutting-edge thinking and action on the topic.
