Assessing the effectiveness of the North American Agreement on
Labour Cooperation (NAALC), this book examines the operation of the
core institutions (the Secretariat and National Administrative
Offices) over the past seven years. It discusses the main functions
of these institutions in hearing public submissions on violations
of labour laws and in conducting research and cooperative
activities. Based on interview research, the analysis reviews the
strengths and weaknesses of the accord to assess its contribution
to a common labour relations regime in North America and its impact
in creating new transnational communities of actors in government
and civil society in the three countries. The NAALC is also
compared with the social dimension of the European Union system,
and a final assessment is made as to whether the NAALC institutions
live up to the promises of their founders and whether these can be
a model for labour relations in any future Free Trade Area of the
Americas (FTAA) agreement.
