’This book addresses the major issue of the nature and future of labour law and employment regulation. It transcends current traditional scientific and policy debates in two related ways. First by exploring the potential of labour law as reflexive (re)regulation and second by putting labour law in the global context - i.e. the World Society. The book convincingly indicates how labour law can indeed successfully operate among the different societal systems and between global, national and local levels.’
