- Gender,labour Markets and Economics
The multidisciplinary contributions, which cover a variety of theoretical approaches, are all concerned with transitional labour markets and labour market policy in the new global economic environment. The authors first address current arguments and controversies regarding appropriate institutions for the formation and implementation of labour market and employment policies. They move on to focus on the policies and problems associated with enhancing gender equality in terms of labour market integration and transitions. Finally, they examine new institutional arrangements that they believe will both enhance the performance of transitional labour markets and improve the management of social risks.
Combining a theoretical approach with empirical research and a strong policy emphasis, the scope and diversity of this book will ensure a broad audience amongst economists, political scientists and academics in the fields of labour market theory and policy.

Store description
Toby's Books are mainly new or minor shelf wear review copies or new books purchased which (in spite of original optimism) have not been read. Some of the review copies are first edition hard cover and are now difficult to obtain as the bulk of these were sold to libraries. Some books were purchased second hand, some as ex-library stock, but most were purchased second hand with minimal wear and are in surprisingly good condition in spite of twenty or so years on a shelf. Some of my books are only available in the North America - where they were bought on visits to Detroit, Washington, and New York. There is always an element of the subjective in assessments of condition. However, very effort has been made to ensure that the description errs towards the negative rather than the positive. I am able to send photos of any book or journal you may be interested in, as well as other detail. On shipping, I use Abe's default charges which are the lowest. I do not attempt to make a profit on shipping, in fact shipping is often at a loss. Where shipping is considerably above Abe's standard price, my policy is to go halves with the purchaser on the difference. Although Abe gives standard shipping times, please be aware that books to the Southern hemisphere tend to arrive very close to the limit if sent surface.…
