Positioning industrial relations in a discussion that is sensitive
to broader political, historical, and ideological tensions, this
insightful book offers reflections on the politics of de-regulation
that have developed in southern European work and employment
relations over the past 20 years. Interwoven with case studies from
Greece, Italy, Portugal, and Spain, the book reviews critical
debates and issues related to de-regulation in employment relations
and neoliberalism in southern Europe. Taking stock of major changes
and crises affecting these national contexts over time, from
austerity politics to the COVID-19 pandemic, chapters investigate
how new voices, actors, and social movements are beginning to
emerge and engage with the politics of work. The book ultimately
posits that debates on production and work need to pay closer
attention to changes in patterns of consumption and the changing
nature of worker voice, and highlights how these changes are being
used to undermine collective and social rights. Surveying political
shifts in collective worker voice and representation over time, the
book will benefit students and scholars of industrial relations,
labour studies, the sociology of work, and employment politics. Its
evaluation of the impact of de-regulation strategies imposed across
southern Europe will prove invaluable to practitioners and
policymakers involved in public employment and industrial
relations.

Fast-paced action movie starring Jeffrey Dean Morgan and Mickey
Rourke. The Courier (Morgan) has earned his nickname through a
remarkable ability to track down individuals and deliver messages
and packages. The Courier is particularly prized, in certain
circles, for his refusal to ask questions or query the legality of
the material he carries. However, when he is handed a package by a
branch of the Russian mafia and asked to deliver it to an
especially notorious underworld figure, The Courier's skills will
be tested to the limit. He believes he has made a breakthrough when
he gets in contact with Maxwell (Mickey Rourke), a former associate
of the elusive figure he is seeking, but how far can Maxwell be
trusted?
The Research Handbook on Private Enforcement of Competition Law in
the EU provides wide-ranging coverage of a key aspect of
competition law enforcement which is undergoing constant and rapid
growth in significance. The Handbook examines the private
enforcement of competition law across the EU and beyond, shedding
light on pertinent and underlying issues. This Research Handbook
brings different perspectives into the dialogue, curating
contributions from judges, academics and practitioners. As a whole,
the Handbook delivers a deft exploration of strategies to
successfully enforce rights across the EU and encompasses
discussion and scrutiny of legal instruments, institutional
developments, key litigation issues and judicial practice. It
delivers contemporary and comparative reflection on developments in
practice, including the impact of the Antitrust Damages directive,
and the impact of a range of CJEU case-law. Organised into three
main sections covering general issues, key aspects relating to
private enforcement, and the experience of enforcement in key
jurisdictions, this rigorous and engaging Research Handbook will be
an invaluable resource for scholars, advanced students and
practitioners.
This crucial Handbook investigates an urgent area for
policy-makers, academia and industries alike: the circular economy.
International experts on the subject bring together the latest
thinking on this critical global issue. Providing a comprehensive
overview of the mechanisms and consequences of the circular
economy, as well as its limitations, it raises important questions
concerning how the world should proceed when non-renewable
resources, such as fossil fuels and minerals, are being depleted
and the environment is struggling to cope with the waste and
emissions of unsustainable production and consumption systems.
Contributors explore a broad range of themes, such as new
sustainable production and consumption systems, new design
requirements, recycling systems, new business models and the social
impacts of the circular economy, while also consolidating the many
ways in which the topic has been dealt with in research, business
and policy-making. Shedding light on a concept that has become
increasingly relevant during the last decade, the Handbook of the
Circular Economy is essential reading for students, academics and
policy-makers trying to make sense of the plethora of ways in which
the term has been applied and interpreted.
