With over thirty member societies in twenty-four different countries, the European Federation of Corrosion (EFC) is one of the world's largest corrosion organisations. Founded in 1955, it recently celebrated its fiftieth anniversary. To mark the event, it was proposed that the EFC Working Parties, each of which addresses a clearly defined aspect of corrosion (or its mitigation), should be invited to contribute to a special publication. Thirteen current and past chairpersons responded to this challenge and each, in their own way, has summarised progress in their particular area of interest. The main focus of these contributions is on developments during the first fifty years of existence of the EFC and, in particular, on the contributions made by its working parties. The topics covered in this title include: Corrosion Inhibitors; High Temperature Corrosion - Nuclear Corrosion; Corrosion Education; Methods of Corrosion Testing; Marine Corrosion; Microbiologically Influenced Corrosion; Corrosion in Concrete; Corrosion in Oil and Gas Production; Corrosion Control by Coatings; Corrosion Management in Refineries; Cathodic Protection; and, Corrosion in Automotive Structures. In addition, the book features an introductory overview of the Federation's history by the EFC Scientific Secretary. This fascinating publication should be of interest to everyone concerned with corrosion and the work of the EFC.

In a global economy, workers must assert their collective rights as workers in order to win human rights as individuals. 'Workers of the world, unite!' Karl Marx's famous call to action still promises an effective means of winning human rights in the modern global economy, according to economist Richard P. McIntyre. Currently, the human rights movement insists upon a person's right to life, freedom, and material necessities. In democratic, industrial nations such as the United States, the movement focuses more specifically on a person's civil rights and equal opportunity.The movement's victories since WWII have come at a cost, however. The emphasis on individual rights erodes collective rights - the rights that disadvantaged peoples need to assert their most basic human rights. This is particularly true for workers, McIntyre argues. By reintroducing Marxian and Institutional analysis, he reveals the class relations and power structures that determine the position of workers in the global economy. The best hope for achieving workers' rights, he concludes, lies in grassroots labor organizations that claim the right of association and collective bargaining. At last, an economist offers a vision for human rights that takes both moral questions and class relations seriously.
