Trade Unions in a Neoliberal World is the first book to provide
readers with an authoritative and comprehensive assessment of the
impact of New Labour governments on employment relations and trade
unions. This innovative text locates changes in industrial politics
since the 1990s in the development of globalization and the
worldwide emergence of neoliberalism. The advent of Tony Blair's
government in 1997 promised a new dawn for employment relations. In
this rigorous but readable volume, a team of experienced and
respected contributors explain in detail how the story has
unfolded. This book looks at all aspects of New Labour's policies
in relation to employment relations and trade unionism. The first
half of Trade Unions in a Neoliberal World presents an overview of
industrial politics, the evolution of New Labour and an anatomy of
contemporary trade unionism. It discusses relations between the
Labour Party and the unions and the response of trade unionists to
political and economic change. The second part contains chapters on
legislation, partnership, organizing, training, strikes and
perspectives on Europe.
