Book Description

0521847850 978-0521847858 January 15, 2007 1
With the forces of globalization as a backdrop, this pathbreaking casebook develops labor and employment law in the context of the national laws of nine countries important to the global economy -- U.S., Canada, Mexico, U.K., Germany, France, China, Japan and India. National materials are contextualized by coverage of international labor standards promulgated by the International Labor Organization, as well as the principles that emerge from two regional trade arrangements -- the North American Free Trade Agreement and the European Union -- and TNC's self-regulatory efforts. Instructor resources include an extensive teachers' manual, powerpoint slides, and a website providing updates in this broad and fast-moving subject.

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
There are no page numbers in this edition! Keep that in mind if you are purchasing the Kindle edition. I was able to use a friend's hard copy to match up the locations for assignments so it wasn't the end of the world, but it was a little time-consuming. I made notes and put in bookmarks for the beginning and end of each assignment; the "Show Notes and Marks" option made it much easier to navigate the assignments.

3-star rating has nothing to do with the content of the text itself. This was a required text for a short summer course, and the review needed a rating.
