The economic crisis has brought about a watershed in institutional,
political, and social relations, reshaping the labour market and
the class structure in southern Europe. This book provides a
critical comparative assessment of the dynamics of change in the
employment field, focusing on Spain, Greece, and Cyprus. The book
assesses how the liberalization and deregulation processes and the
promotion of market-enhancing reforms progressed in three different
national settings, identifying the forces, agents, contexts, and
mechanisms shaping the employment and industrial relations systems.
The comparative perspective used deciphers the interplay of
external and internal dynamics in the restructuring of the labour
field in Southern Europe, examining austerity and its contestation
in connection with prevailing societal ideologies and class shifts.
The first part of the book sets the theoretical and historical
context, the second is comprised of three empirical national case
studies, and the third discusses comparatively the handling of the
crisis, its impact, and its legacy from the standpoint of a decade
later. The book presents differences in industrial relations
systems, trade union forms, and class composition dynamics,
accounting for the development of the crisis and the reshaping of
the employment field after one decade of crisis. It will be of
value to researchers, academics, professionals, and students
working on issues of employment and industrial relations, labour
market and labour law, political economy and class structure, as
well as those interested in the contemporary society and economy of
southern Europe in general, and Spain, Greece, and Cyprus in
particular.
