This incisive book evaluates the legal effects of soft law, its foundations and how they behave in some of the most innovative areas of EU law. Combining theory, language and sectoral insights, this comprehensive review uses case studies to shed new light on the three core areas of soft law. The book opens with an exploration of the meaning and scope of EU soft law’s legal effects from a theoretical and doctrinal perspective. Chapters analyse the role, contribution and broader legal effectiveness of the language employed by EU authorities when drafting soft law instruments. Finally, in a ground-up approach to the research topic, the book discusses soft law’s legal effects within three areas of EU legislation, namely financial supervision, technical standardisation and telecommunications law. Advancing a legal and argumentative toolkit to evaluate and improve EU soft law’s persuasiveness, this title will be advantageous to academics, practitioners and policy-makers with specialisations in European law, constitutional and administrative law and regulation and governance.

Positioning industrial relations in a discussion that is sensitive to broader political, historical, and ideological tensions, this insightful book offers reflections on the politics of de-regulation that have developed in southern European work and employment relations over the past 20 years. Interwoven with case studies from Greece, Italy, Portugal, and Spain, the book reviews critical debates and issues related to de-regulation in employment relations and neoliberalism in southern Europe. Taking stock of major changes and crises affecting these national contexts over time, from austerity politics to the COVID-19 pandemic, chapters investigate how new voices, actors, and social movements are beginning to emerge and engage with the politics of work. The book ultimately posits that debates on production and work need to pay closer attention to changes in patterns of consumption and the changing nature of worker voice, and highlights how these changes are being used to undermine collective and social rights. Surveying political shifts in collective worker voice and representation over time, the book will benefit students and scholars of industrial relations, labour studies, the sociology of work, and employment politics. Its evaluation of the impact of de-regulation strategies imposed across southern Europe will prove invaluable to practitioners and policymakers involved in public employment and industrial relations.

Met hierdie klassieke verhaal oor die lewe van ’n mossiegemeenskap skep Hickey ’n werk vir oud en jonk. Kuif Kwaster en sy familie – ’n voorbeeldige en vername mossiegesin in die bodorp – neem die leser op ’n reis wat nie vir mense beskore is nie. Saam met Skeel At en Kuif verdedig lesers die mossie-eer teen die wraaksugtige en rebelse Beatnik-bende; en saam met Meks en Maja word daar vir die mannetjies in die bodorp flikkers gegooi.
Die toneelstuk ontgin nie net Andre Huguenet se lewe as mens en akteur tot met sy tragiese einde nie maar ook die ironiese spel tussen toneel en werklikheid. Ondanks die hoe eise wat hierdie tweekuns aan ’n dramaturg stel, bevestig Fourie opnuut sy vermoe om boeiende, menslike toneel te skep wat toeganklik is vir die gespesialiseerde sowel as die minder ingewyde teaterganger.
