Overview

Labour Law in the Mirror Categories, Values, Interlocutors Edited by Adalberto Perulli & Tiziano Treu The norms and categories of labour law are exposed more directly than other legal sectors to the increasing complexity of the digital society and the impact of technologies on forms of employment. This in-depth legal appraisal of the crisis of the foundational categories of labour law focuses not only on the stresses coming from the seismic changes in economic and social reality but also on labour law participation in major changes in the national, international, and global spheres. In the light of these changes, both those that have taken place and those that are in progress, the contributors - a gathering of well-known and experienced labour law scholars and practitioners - present critical analyses of such aspects as the following: labour law as a synthesis of antagonistic values; decentralisation of industrial relations systems; states' function as regulators of social processes; attribution to private operators of missions previously ensured by the state; corporate sustainability due diligence; relationship between antitrust law and labour law; priority of the moral commands of reason over selfish interests; education and vocational training to facilitate the transition to green high-tech jobs; and protection of human and environmental rights in global value chains. For its analytic clarification of the conceptual pairs inherent in labour law - individual and collective, public and private, autonomy and subordination, local and global, national and European - and its close attention to the consequences of values and philosophical approaches for labour law policies, this book will be welcomed by corporate lawyers, judges, human rights experts, trade unionists, academic researchers, business persons, and all others interested in protecting the role of labour law as a fundamental arbiter of social justice in a globalised world.
