Review

“This is an unusual and an important book. Its editors and contributors are all to be congratulated. ... the volume offers advances in our theoretical and methodological understandings of the scope for regulation of labour markets. These advances are supported by compelling empirical evidence. The astute observations of the contributors have the capacity to shape debates regarding indeterminacy of regulation, but also offer scope for greater creativity, responsive to contemporary labour concerns in both the developed and developing worlds.” (Tonia Novitz, Industrial Law Journal, Vol. 45 (2), July, 2016)
