Beskrivning
The economic analysis of labor and employment law is a bold effort to apply economic theory to explain important empirical facts about the regulation of the employment relationship and to provide positive predictions and normative analyses that are useful to policy-makers. This book draws together 24 chapters, by leading scholars in the field, summarizing the important theoretical and empirical work that has been done to date on a wide spectrum of labor and employment law topics including: regulating employment contracts, unions, collective bargaining, minimum wages, health insurance, executive pay, workers' compensation, unemployment, occupational health and safety, discrimination, needs of families, training and slave labor, to name but a few.This volume is one of the first in a series on specific topics within law and economics which builds upon, updates and replaces Elgar's very popular Encyclopedia of Law and Economics. It is designed as an essential starting point for academics and policy-makers who are interested in these topics.

Recensioner i media

'This encyclopedic book lives up to its title. An up-to-date handbook of what we know on almost everything interesting and important in labor written by prominent economists, labor relations experts, and legal experts. The opening chapters lay out the intellectual framework linking law and economics in individual and collective employment contracts. Then comes a potpourri of topics from pay to benefits to regulations to discrimination to global labor markets to. . . you name it. Deeper and more complete than any textbook.'
