Antoine Lyon-Caen - Böcker

This is an exciting collection of essays by an internationally distinguished group of writers. It is the first book of its kind to take stock of what cmmunity labour law has achieved to date but also explores its directions in the future. The book is ambitious in scope, covering the foundations of EC labour law, the principal policy developments which have shaped it, institutional relations and the extent to which these policies have been implemented in fields such as discrimination, employment, immigration, and the Social Fund. This collection will appeal to students and practitioners of European Community law, labour law, and social policy. The essays are written in honour Professor Lord Wedderburn of Charlton, the doyen of European labour law studies and one of the century's outstanding legal scholars.

This collection offers a powerful and coherent study of the transformation of the multinational enterprise as both an object and subject of law within and beyond States. The study develops an analysis of the large firm as being a system of organization exercising vast powers through various instruments of private law, such as property rights, contracts and corporations.The volume focuses on the firm as the operational unit of governance within emerging systems of globalization, whilst exploring in-depth the forms within which the firm might be regulated as against the inhibiting parameters of national law. It connects, through the ordering concept of the firm in globalization, the distinct regimes of constitutionalization, national and international law.The study will be of interest to students and academics in globalization and the regulation of multinational corporations, as well as law, economics and politics on a global scale. It will also interest government leaders and NGOs working in the areas of MNE regulations.
