Industrial Relations Journal: European Annual Review 1997

This is the first in a series of annual reviews in the field of European industrial relations.

Each review, covering the European Union and Central and Eastern Europe, provides expert commentaries from a team of European specialists in industrial relations and employment developments.

Chapters on employers and trade unions, collective bargaining, employment law, commentaries on leading cases and social Europe are set within contextual contributions on the political and economic influences on industrial relations, as well as a detailed chronicle of events over the review year.

The authors discuss and assess recent issues and developments but also provide a longer term perspective to appeal to a wide readership of academics, employers, trade union officials, and politicians and their advisers.
