'Good governance, social stabilization and economic justice are not
luxuries that weigh down and impede the process of development.
They are the essence of development itself. This book provides the
documentation required to carry the point.' - From the foreword by
James K. Galbraith Labor market institutions, including collective
bargaining, the regulation of employment contracts and social
protection policies, are instrumental for improving the well-being
of workers, their families and society. In many countries, these
institutions have been eroded, whilst in other countries they do
not exist at all. Labour Markets, Institutions and Inequality
includes empirical case studies, from both developed and developing
countries, which examine the role of institutions in ensuring
equitable income distribution. The volume discusses the effect of
macroeconomic, labor and social policies on inequality,
highlighting how specific groups such as women, migrants and
younger workers are affected by labor market institutions. Expert
contributions demonstrate that in order to reduce inequality,
countries must strengthen their labour market institutions through
comprehensive policy formulation. Contributors: C. Behrendt, P.
