Summary
  • Based on the 1992 World Congress of the International Industrial Relations Association (IIRA), Niland, Verevis, and Lansbury's collection assembles the works of thirty-one of the world's leading scholars and commentators.
  • This incisive comprehensive volume addresses global issues and trends in the industrial relations field by examining five key subject areas: the role of the state, trade unionism, human resource management, labor market policies and practices, and the role of industrial relations in political transformation. Apart from a survey overview, the comparison and contrast of so many disparate policies and systems offers a uniquely crystallized vision of this subject in a broad, international scope.
  • . The Future of Industrial Relations is an essential resource for anyone seeking to expand their knowledge and understanding of industrial relations in today's rapidly changing global environment.
