Comparative Labor Relations Models

This course will introduce students to the labor relations systems in a number of countries and provide a framework for examining labor relations systems globally. Participants will discuss the varied socioeconomic and political environments in which labor relations systems have developed and explore how they are responding to the challenge of globalization and capitalism in the 21st century. Particular emphasis will be placed on union strategies for growth and revitalization. By studying the labor relations systems of various countries, it is possible to gain a broader perspective and thus better understand labor movements more generally and the forces that continue to shape labor's choices and strategies.
