This book examines the impact of austerity policies on labor movements in different countries, providing a historical and comparative perspective on the challenges and opportunities faced by workers in the face of economic crisis.
The book brings together a team of leading scholars to analyze the effects of austerity on labor markets, social protection systems, and collective bargaining institutions. It also explores the ways in which labor movements have responded to austerity, both through traditional forms of resistance and through more innovative strategies.
The book's findings have important implications for understanding the future of labor movements in an era of global austerity. They also offer valuable lessons for policymakers who are seeking to design more just and equitable economic policies.
