This book contains the lectures given by prominent civil servants and representatives of the International Employers'' Association (IOE) and the International Confederation of Free Trade Unions to law students from various European countries at the occasion of their visit to the International Labour Organisation. The purpose of these lectures is to expand on the major problems the ILO, as the social conscience of the world, will be confronted with in the next century. These lectures open a panorama of worldwide trends, which will co-determine the future outlook of our societies.
The Geneva lectures deal with the following important topics: the world of work; the informal economy; globalisation and the confrontation it involves; the future of the trade union movement; the role of the employer''s associations; the ILO Declaration on fundamental principles and rights at work (1998); child labour; international labour standards; and the codes of conduct of multinational enterprises.
This collection gives the reader an insight into the world of tomorrow and how one of the leading international bodies can deal with its various aspects.

The Treaty of Amsterdam brings institutional changes to the European structure. It also contains the provisions regarding social policy and employment in its new chapters. This work focuses on both of these elements. Four of the five contributions examine the social policy of the European Union (EU) and the European Community (EC). The book also includes a chapter on institutional changes because, like other aspects of European policy, the Treaty''s social provisions are carried out through institutional structures. Institutional Changes and European Social Policies after the Treaty of Amsterdam also features a helpful index and several key annexes, including the consolidated version of the treaties establishing the EU and the EC, and the Presidency Conclusions of the Council Summit meetings at Amsterdam and Luxembourg regarding social policy and employment. This new work, edited by a seasoned author and professor, puts key information on the Treaty of Amsterdam at the reader''s fingertips and will prove an informative resource for academics, practitioners, and policymakers in the field.
