This insightful Handbook examines how labor unions across the world
have experienced and responded to the growth of
neo-liberalism.Since the 1970s, the spread of neo-liberalism across
the world has radically reconfigured the relationship between
unions, employers and the state. The contributors highlight that
this is the major cause and effect of union decline and argue that
if there is to be any union revitalisation and return to former
levels of influence, then unions need to respond in appropriate
political and practical ways. Written in a clear and accessible
style, the Handbook examines unions' efforts to date in many of the
major economies of the world, providing foundations for
understanding each country. Policy makers, analysts, academics,
researchers and advanced students in employment, industrial and
labor relations as well as political economy will find this unique
Handbook an important resource to understanding the contemporary
plight and activity of labor unions. Contributors include: S.
