New Frontiers and Trajectories in LabourManagement Relations (Paperback)

New Frontiers and Trajectories in Labour-Management Relations goes beyond a focus on the outcomes of work and employment, to elaborate how different actors' roles at multiple levels of analysis shape labour-management relationships and workplace behaviours. It explores the political economy of work and labour-management relationships by considering the role of different labour market institutions in the governance of work and employment, as well as how these institutions shape and are shaped by power and conflict in work and labour-management relationships.
