Edited by Shelley Marshall, Senior Lecturer, Department of Business Law and Taxation, Monash University, Australia and Colin Fenwick, Head of Labour Law and Reform Unit, International Labour Office, Switzerland

'Marshall and Fenwick have sculpted a rich body of essays by brilliant scholars from developed and developing countries. Labour Regulation and Development takes the reader on innovative angles of approach to poverty, inequality, informality, exclusion, gender and ethnic discrimination, supply-chain dynamics, trade and investment flows, regulatory enforcement capacity and other challenges in the global economy. This volume confronts head-on debates about labour market regulation and whether it helps or hurts economic development. Their approaches differ, but contributors here make a powerful case for strong regulatory institutions that promote economic development while advancing social justice.'
