This book explores labor and competition law in 14 jurisdictions and globally, addressing cutting-edge questions in the legal organization of markets.
This book explores the global legal context of the putative tensions between labor rights and competition policy. It will benefit those studying the gig economy and the fissured workplace, including labor, competition, international trade, constitutional and human rights lawyers, as well as law and political economy scholars.As scholars and policymakers around the world seek a systematic approach to the question of 'gig work,' one of its regulatory dimensions – the intersection of labor and competition law – points toward a deeper reconceptualization of the conventional legal and economic categories typically brought to bear upon it. A comparative approach to the question of gig work further reveals the variety and contingency of background assumptions that are often overlooked in the context of domestic policy debates. By combining a detailed comparative doctrinal survey of the regulation of non-employee workers in domestic competition law systems with a set of essays reframing the underlying questions raised – in terms of international legal frameworks, freedom of association norms, alternative approaches to law and economics, and more – The Cambridge Handbook of Labor in Competition Law moves the debates over the fissured workplace and the labor – competition law intersection forward in novel ways.
