European Community Labour Law: Principles and Perspectives cover

This is an exciting collection of essays by an internationally distinguished group of writers. It is the first book of its kind to take stock of what cmmunity labour law has achieved to date but also explores its directions in the future. The book is ambitious in scope, covering the foundations of EC labour law, the principal policy developments which have shaped it, institutional relations and the extent to which these policies have been implemented in fields such as discrimination, employment, immigration, and the Social Fund. This collection will appeal to students and practitioners of European Community law, labour law, and social policy. The essays are written in honour Professor Lord Wedderburn of Charlton, the doyen of European labour law studies and one of the century's outstanding legal scholars.

"The scope of the book is far-reaching...The creation of this book was an ambitious project. It clearly had a long gestation period but this may have been inevitable in order to bring together the work of such eminent scholars...this book clearly would be a valuable addition to any library and a worthy tribute to Bill Wedderburn."
a stimulating and provocative book that should be of considerable interest to all students of comparative labor law./ The contributions to this volume are characterized by penetrating and critical analyses.../ ... a collection of clear-eyed, generally sympathetic, but critical appraisals, from a variety of different perspectives .../ Benjamin Aaron, Professor of Law Emeritus, UCLA School of Law, Comparative Labor Law and Policy Journal, Vol 19, 1998.
