Details

There are many new realities confronting labor in the United States. Technology is redefining traditional employment, and globalization continues moving manufacturing as well as service jobs to lower-cost jurisdictions.

This timely sixth edition discusses the recent political developments that impact American labor as well as new courts cases and the social and economic issues American workers are confronting. For union and employer representatives and labor lawyers alike this volume not only describes the labor law system briefly and clearly, but also attempts to further an understanding among workers, unions, and businesses in order to promote an improved working environment.

Professor William B. Gould IV brings to this work more than a half-century of experience as a practicing labor lawyer and academic, as well as practical exposure to the relationship between administrative agencies and the public.
