Bernd Brandl is Professor at Durham University Business School. In his research he is dealing with methodological, empirical and theoretical research questions in the fields of employment relations and international HRM. In particular, much of his thematic and theoretical research focused on comparative cross-country analyses of different employment relations and labour market systems, institutions and policies. Professor Brandl is also engaging in policy making debates and worked as an advisor/expert for international organizations such as the European Commission and the International Labour Organization (ILO). Bengt Larsson is a professor of sociology at Linnaeus University and University of Gothenburg in Sweden. His research focuses on industrial relations and transnational trade union cooperation. Larsson has published several papers in journals such as European Journal of Industrial Relations, British Journal of Industrial relations, Economic and Industrial Democracy, and Industrial Relations Journal. Together with Professor Bengt Furåker, Larsson recently published a book entitled Trade Union Cooperation in Europe: Patterns, Conditions, Issues (Palgrave Pivot, 2020). Alex Lehr is an assistant professor in empirical political science at Radboud University. His research is at the intersection of sociology, economics and political science, and focuses on economic inequality, employment relations and labour market representation.
