The Selected Papers in this volume, written over a period of some
20 years, represent just a small part of Marco Biagi's scientific
writings, and are reprinted here with a view to showing the range,
depth and originality of his research work. While many of his
papers dealing with labour relations issues in the Italian context
were published in Italian, Marco's long association with Johns
Hopkins University and Dickinson College, along with his close
links with the leading scholars in comparative labour law and
industrial relations not just in the member states of the European
Union, but also in many other countries, including Japan, were of
fundamental importance for his work, and as a result he chose to
publish many of his most thought-provoking papers in English. What
emerges from a reading of these papers is the integrity and
consistency of his thinking: themes that appear in his early work,
such as industrial democracy, employee participation, training for
flexibility, the role of small and medium-sized enterprises, and
innovative strategies for creating new jobs and improving the
quality of work, are further developed in the later years. He
always wrote with a sharp eye on changes in the labour market
arising from economic, social and political developments, such as
most recently the introduction of the single currency, and always
with a view to extending the benefits of employment opportunities
beyond the existing limits. His ideas will continue to play an
influential role in thinking about employment issues for many years
to come.
