Labour Law and Industrial Relations in Recessionary Times: The Italian Labour Relations in a Global Economy

This volume includes a number of papers written in English and published in the last fifteen years in which the Italian labour market faced many changes. The book not only provides the international readership with a frame of reference in both conceptual and legal terms that helps to appreciate the Italian Labour Law currently in force, but also represents a contribution to moving beyond the self-referential nature of the Italian debate on the reform of labour laws. As such, the book supplies the reform process of the Italian labour market with an international and comparative dimension which in accordance with the programmatic approach of Marco Biagi will also feed the debate at the national level.
