International Free Trade Agreements and Labour Rights

New Global Perspectives

270 Seiten, Hardcover

Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Offering an interdisciplinary perspective - including not only law, but also policy studies and economics - this timely edited volume provides a global overview of the most up-to-date issues, new trends and postulates for future action in the field of international free trade agreements and labour rights. Introducing perspectives of top scholars, this monograph compares the EU's approach with the US's, Canada's, Australia's and New Zealand's attitudes to the title topic. It also discusses the economic controversy over the impact of workers' rights clauses in trade agreements, as well as a shift in focus of several governments' recent cross-border labour policy approaches from the level of the state to the level of the firm and supply chain.
