It is still a common assumption that labour-management relations are about trade unions, collective bargaining, and strikes. While these issues remain crucial, today's conceptual terrain is much broader. New Frontiers and Trajectories in Labour-Management Relations goes beyond a focus on the outcomes of work and employment, to elaborate how different actors' roles at multiple levels of analysis shape labour-management relationships and workplace behaviours. It explores the political economy of work and labour-management relationships by considering the role of different labour market institutions in the governance of work and employment, as well as how these institutions shape and are shaped by power and conflict in work and labour-management relationships. Approaching the subject as a broad multidisciplinary social science field, the volume features contributions from leading international experts on work, employment, and labour-management relations, encompassing thinking from economics, sociology, and law, to history, political science, and industrial-organizational (I-O) psychology. With this diversity of perspectives, the volume provides an eclectic framing of how work and employment relationships are formed and coordinated across time, space, and place.

As wealth inequality skyrockets and trade union power declines, the living wage movement has become ever more urgent for public policymakers, academics, and – most importantly – those workers whose wages hover close to the breadline. A real living wage in any part of the world is rarely its minimum wage: it is the minimum income needed to cover living costs and participate fully in society. Most governments’ minimum wages are still falling short, meaning millions of workers struggle to cover their living costs.This book brings new, vital insights to the conversation from a carefully selected group of contributors at the forefront of this field. By juxtaposing advances across sectors and countries, and encompassing many different approaches and indeed definitions of the living wage, Dobbins and Prowse offer a rich tapestry of approaches that may inform public policy.By including the experiences and voices of those workers earning at, or near, the living wage alongside the opinions of leading experts in this field, this book is a pioneering contribution for public policymakers as well as students and academics of work and employment relations, public policy, organizational studies, social economics, and politics.
