This volume seeks to trace certain tendencies and developments in
social policy in Western Europe and the United States. In the
first, which is general, Professor Girod recalls the objectives of
social policy as well as offering a number of scenarios or
strategies for the future of social policy. The social policy
philosophy of Schumpeter, Hayek and Roepke, and their current
vitality, are traced by Professor de Luabier. Professor Delcourt,
in his chapter on Social Policy - crisis or mutation?, presents a
critical analysis of various trends in social policy and in
particular the elitist philosophy of Hirschmann. The second part of
the volume deals with particular national experiences: Switzerland
by Professor Tschudi; Sweden by Dr. Hartmann; the United States by
Professor Beneton; and Italy by Professor Donati. The book broadly
covers the diverse range of subject matter encompassed within the
term 'social policy' and should be of great value both to social
policy practitioners as well as to those academics concerned with
the fields of economics, sociology and political science.

Management Development Series No. 23 The message for managers to
draw from this volume is that international labour standards need
not be viewed as constraints or encroachments on managers in the
exercise of their functions, but rather as a helpful source of
practical and profitable information and guidance. The volume seeks
to make the international labour standards understandable to
practising managers by explaining the meaning and aim of
international labour Conventions and Recommendations in a number of
fields. It covers standards on the recognition of trade unions and
other workers' representatives, and on dealing with them through
collective bargaining and various forms of consultative and
participatory machinery. Attention is also given to the standards
which touch on the personnel function and on human resources
management, such as recruitment and selection, training, grievance
procedures and termination of employment, and to standards on more
general conditions of employment, such as wages, hours, leave and
holidays, safety, health and the environment of the enterprise.
