Estlund and Wachter have assembled a feast on the economic analysis
of issues in labor and employment law for scholars and
policy-makers. The volume begins with foundational discussions of
the economic analysis of the individual employment relationship and
collective bargaining. It then progresses to discussions of the
theoretical and empirical work on a wide range of important labor
and employment law topics including: union organizing and employee
choice, the impact of unions on firm and economic performance, the
impact of unions on the enforcement of legal rights, just cause for
dismissal, covenants not to compete and employment discrimination.
Anyone who wants to study what economists have to say on these
topics would do well to begin with this collection.' - Kenneth G.
Dau-Schmidt, Indiana University Bloomington School of Law, USThis
Research Handbook assembles the original work of leading legal and
economic scholars, working in a variety of traditions and
methodologies, on the economic analysis of labor and employment
law. In addition to surveying the current state of the art on the
economics of labor markets and employment relations, the volume's
16 chapters assess aspects of traditional labor law and union
organizing, the law governing the employment contract and
termination of employment, employment discrimination and other
employer mandates, restrictions on employee mobility, and the forum
and remedies for labor and employment claims. Comprising a variety
of approaches, the Research Handbook on the Economics of Labor and
Employment Law will appeal to legal scholars in labor and
employment law, industrial relations scholars and labor economists.
