Paperback. 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 andworkplace 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, aswell 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 ofperspectives, the volume provides an eclectic framing of how work and employment relationships are formed and coordinated across time, space, and place. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.…
