Book Description
The gig economy, precarious work, and nonstandard employment have forced labor law scholars to rethink their discipline. Classical remedies for unequal power, capabilities approaches, "third way" market regulation, and laissez-faire all now vie for attention - at least in English. Despite a deep history of labor activism, Latin American scholarship has had scant presence in these debates. This book introduces to an English-language audience another approach: principled labor law, based on Latin American perspectives, using a jurisprudential method focused on worker protection. The authors apply this methodology to the least likely case of labor-protective jurisprudence in the industrialized world: the United States. In doing so, Gamonal and Rosado focus on the Thirteenth Amendment as a labor-protective constitutional provision, the National Labor Relations Act, and the Fair Labor Standards Act. This book shows how principled labor law can provide a clear and simple method for consistent, labor-protective jurisprudence in the United States and beyond.

Constitutional Framework of European Labour Law in Italy, France, Germany, Portugal and Spain
Author: Luís Gonçalves da Silva
Publisher: Springer Nature
ISBN: 303145717X
Category : Law
Languages : en
Pages : 160
Book Description
The challenges that labour law currently faces are well known. The emergence of new forms of work and the growing importance of technology in the age of the Fourth Industrial Revolution are important tests of the resilience of this field of law and its function: regulating the labour market. Therefore, it is becoming increasingly important to examine the fundamentals of labour law, especially how subordinate labour is addressed in various countries’ constitutions, in order to focus the analysis of the new phenomena affecting labour relations on their fundamental frameworks.In this context, this book puts forward an overarching framework that reflects how the Italian, German, French, Portuguese, and Spanish constitutions view labour in terms of both collective and individual relations – particularly the right to collective bargaining, the right to strikes and lock-outs, job security, and the right to remuneration – without losing sight of each Constitution's historical and political context.The aim of this book is therefore to provide an overview of the labour law frameworks in the constitutions of these legal systems and to show, by means of practical examples, how the law concretely implements them. Accordingly, it provides notes on the legal treatment of the topics analysed, serving as a practical guide for the study of these matters in the respective jurisdictions.This book will be of interest to all students and scholars of labour law looking for an overview of the topics covered in all five jurisdictions.

Foundations on community and comparative, European and North American, labor and social security law
Author: Jesús Martínez Girón
Publisher: Netbiblo
ISBN: 9788497451772
Category : Law
Languages : es
Pages : 284
Book Description
Este manual universitario expone con toda claridad, pero también con todo rigor académico, el conjunto de «Fuentes», «Instituciones» y «Derechos, Libertades y Principios», integrados en un curso académico ?a explicar a lo largo de un cuatrimestre? sobre dos grandes áreas temáticas. De un lado, el Derecho de la Unión Europea, ad extra y ad intra, del Trabajo y de la Seguridad Social. De otro lado, el Derecho comparado del Trabajo y de la Seguridad Social ?abordado desde un punto de vista español, pero también cosmopolita? alemán, británico, francés, italiano, portugués y, por último, norteamericano. Su cuidada tipografía, con tres niveles de conocimiento distintos marcados por tres tamaños distintos de letra, pretende separar en el texto lo que el alumno universitario realmente debe conocer y estudiar, desgajando de este nivel de conocimiento primordial otros temas que interesan más inmediatamente al profesorado en formación o a los profesionales implicados en la llevanza de asuntos jurídicos laborales y de Seguridad Social (jueces, abogados, graduados sociales, sindicalistas, etc.). Esta segmentación de niveles de conocimiento lo convierte en una herramienta docente útil no sólo en las Facultades de Derecho, sino también en otros centros universitarios distintos (Escuelas Universitarias de Relaciones Laborales, Escuelas Universitarias de Estudios Empresariales, Facultades de Administración y Dirección de Empresas, etc.) en los que también se imparten estudios oficiales de postgrado, y señaladamente, Masters y Doctorado.

What private law avenues are open to victims of human rights violations? This innovative new collection explores this question across sixteen jurisdictions in the Global South and Global North.
