Uniwersytet Jagiellonski, Wydawnictwo European Union Private International Labour Law
Book SynopsisThe European Union as an area of freedom, security, and justice has created a community which adheres to unified laws. In matters regulated by labour law (individual and collective) as well as social security law, the above aim may be met by introducing unified regulations, allowing for identical ways of resolving conflicts of labour law that arise in work relations where there is a cross national element present. In order to ensure legal stability within work relations, national regulations concerning international private labour law had to be replaced by unified conflicts of law norms. These norms are to be applied by both employees and employers of EU member states as well as applied in work relations situations where third parties are involved. EU private international law is a collection of international private labour law regulations issued by EU institutions, which unanimously and in a unifying fashion describe the legal situations of the parties to a work relationship, where there is a foreign element present, allowing for the application of foreign laws based on citizenship, residency, where the headquarters of one of the parties is located, where the work is carried out or where the action has taken place.Trade ReviewIt is a fundamental law not only for University students and teachers, but also for legal operators, as the monograph study presents the basic notions and laws from a theoretical point of view but, especially and above all, it presents a set of proposals and practical solutions in order to tackle the critical issue of the occurrence of norm conflicts and how agents can remain operative in the face of such conflicts. -- Prof. Luis Jimena Quesada, University of Valencia Faculty of Law, President of the European Committee of Social Rights, Council of Europe.

Brill World Trade, Child Labour and Transnational
Book SynopsisThe Open Access publication of this book has been made possible by the Swiss National Science Foundation. Is the current structure of international law still adequate to solve global problems such as child labour? This book argues for more coherence between human rights and trade law, analysing the world trade law compatibility of topical trade measures on (forced) child labour such as the US Tariff Act of 1930 or the proposal for an EU Forced Labour Regulation, mainly under the GATT non-discrimination principles and the policy exceptions clause. Discussing theories such as constitutionalism and pluralism, Franziska Humbert develops the idea of a New Legal Humanism as a cognitive frame for the global legal order.Table of ContentsForeword Preface Acknowledgements List of Abbreviations Introduction 1 Globalization, Child Labour and the International Legal Order 2 Contents 1 The Problem of Child Labour and Trade 1 Introduction 2 The International Dimension of Child Labour 2.1 Child Labour as a Global Problem 2.2 The Protection from Exploitative Child Labour as Ius Cogens 3 The Need for Global Solutions Including Trade Measures 2 The Status Quo of Trade Measures on Child Labour in WTO Law 1 Introduction 1.1 Unilateral Trade Measures 1.2 Defining PPM s and Rules of Interpretation 2 The Rationale of the WTO and the GATT 1994 3 Trade Measures Concerning Child Labour under the Most-Favoured-Nation Clause of GATT Article I 3.1 Most-Favoured-Nation Obligations 3.2 The Relationship with the TBT Agreement 3.3 The Scope of GATT Article I:1 3.4 Like Products 3.5 Any Advantage 3.6 Immediately and Unconditionally 3.7 Exceptions under the Enabling Clause 3.8 Conclusion 4 Compatibility of Trade Measures on Child Labour with GATT Art.

Amsterdam University Press Pathways in Decentralised Collective Bargaining
Book SynopsisOne of the main challenges in labour relations in Europe is the ongoing decentralisation of collective bargaining from national and sectoral levels to company levels. Decentralisation might be an answer to business needs in competitiveness and organisational flexibility. However, it risks erosion of collective bargaining structures, more inequality in employment conditions and fragmentation in trade unions’ powers. Based on recent qualitative research, this book shows high varieties across European countries and economic sectors in degrees, forms and impacts of decentralisation. The authors explore, in interdisciplinary and multi-level perspectives, continuity and change in regulating and practicing collective bargaining in France, Germany, Ireland, Italy, the Netherlands, Poland, Spain and Sweden. In cross-country comparisons, company case studies in manufacturing and retail show the divergent effects of national regimes and social partners’ power resources on trade unions’ strategies and influence in company bargaining.Table of Contents1.

Presses Interuniversitaires Europeennes Quality of Employment in Europe: Legal and
Book SynopsisSince 2001, quality of employment' has been at the core of the political, academic and practical agenda, and has fed a wide-ranging debate. For the first time, a scientific work takes stock of the legal and normative understanding of quality of employment in Europe. In order to develop an interdisciplinary dialogue, the book underlines the importance of law in the debate on quality of employment and suggests how European concepts and tools might be adapted to enrich scientific reflection by employing a rigorous legal approach. To this end, the authors analyse the relevance of the concept of quality of employment in international, European and comparative law, examining a range of topics such as collective and labour rights, social security, non-discrimination and equality at work. Lastly, the authors examine the topic from the Capabilities' perspective, proposing concrete and realistic paths for maintaining the European concept of quality of employment and European social Law in the framework of the ILO Decent Work Agenda.

Book SynopsisThis textbook aims to sketch out the main problems arising in the field of EU transnational transportation by providing adequate understanding of the legal setting in the five key EU legal areas for this sector: fundamental freedoms, private international law, posting of workers, social security coordination and social dialogue. Indeed, road transport is a truly living organism which makes it challenging for the laws to keep up with its ongoing dynamics. In addition, due to its inherent transnational element, the process of application of relevant laws is often shrouded in ambiguity, making it difficult to solve the emerged conflicts of laws. Against this background, this textbook provides an integral vision on the interaction of EU freedoms with social rights at EU level offering a comprehensive and unique in-depth coverage of the most relevant topics and presenting nuanced guidance depicting problemsolving skills which was carefully selected by the leading academic experts. Overall, this position is addressed to not only academics but also to students, practitioners and others interested in the road transport sector.Table of Contents1 Introduction Amber Zwanenburg & Bartłomiej Bednarowicz 2 The EU Fundamental Freedoms in the Light of Cross-Border Road Transport Luca Ratti 3 The Analysis of Private International Law in the EU with Regard to EU Cross-Border Road Transport: Competency and Applicable Law Zef Even, Ruben Houweling, Amber Zwanenburg & Mijke Houwerzijl 4 The Analysis of the Posting of Workers Directive(s) with a Specific Focus on EU Cross-Border Road Transport Mijke Houwerzijl 5 The EU Coordination of the Social Security Systems of the Member States and Its Applicability in Cross-Border Road Transport Herwig Verschueren & Bartłomiej Bednarowicz 6 The European Social Dialogue in the Road Transport Sector Monika Tomaszewska & Michał Szypniewski
