Reviews

I really enjoyed the deliberate stirring up of thinking in Dukes' work... If ensuing debates reawaken discussion of the big battles to be fought for/ by workers, such as freedom and democracy, and capital vs labour, Dukes will have succeeded rather spectacularly in reclaiming old approaches. * Alice Belcher, Edinburgh Law Review * Thoughtful and thought-provoking... It merits a very wide readership among all serious students of labour law. * Bob Simpson, Industrial Law Journal * A brave book that retrieves and defends the goals of emancipation and democracy against contemporary theorising that accepts the market as the measure of and mechanism for achieving workplace and economic justice... An important contribution to debates about the crisis of labour law. * Eric Tucker, Modern Law Review * Dukes presents a convincing argument which outlines the attractiveness of the labour constitution as an idea... For anyone interested in the question of what is labour law this book is highly recommended reading and certainly makes a valuable contribution to the existing literature. * Rebecca Zahn, Historical Studies in Industrial Relations *
