商品描述

Traditionally, studies of employment relations in Africa have been dominated by the role of trade unions and how they collectively influence relationships within the workplace. A contemporary African outlook into the state of employment relations shows that there has been a shift in the dominance of trade unions. This edited collection considers the role of government actors and workers' experiences in both unionised and non-unionised organisations. It seeks to understand how international and national labour markets, including national and international employment actors and institutions, affect employment relations and the ways in which these relationships play out in different national contexts.Researchers, students, policymakers and practitioners working around employment relations in Africa will find this book an essential tool, particularly those with an interest in comparative and international programmes across areas such as employment relations, industrial relations, human resource management, political economy, labour politics, industrial and economic sociology, regulation and social policy.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

傳統上,對非洲就業關係的研究主要集中在工會的角色以及它們如何集體影響工作場所內的關係。對非洲就業關係狀況的當代觀察顯示,工會的主導地位已經發生了變化。這本編輯集考慮了政府行為者和工人在工會和非工會組織中的經驗。它旨在了解國際和國內勞動市場,包括國家和國際就業行為者和機構,如何影響就業關係以及這些關係在不同國家背景下的發展。研究人員、學生、政策制定者和從事非洲就業關係相關工作的從業人員將會發現這本書是一個必不可少的工具,特別是那些對比較和國際項目感興趣的人,涉及領域包括就業關係、勞資關係、人力資源管理、政治經濟學、勞工政治、工業和經濟社會學、監管和社會政策。
