Publisher's Synopsis
The book provides a series of critical articles about the state of industrial relations in Malta. These include reflections about the Pheonicia, Air Malta, Kalaxlokk and Freeport strikes of the 1990s; the state of social partnership; presence of trade unions in the Maltese private sector; the rise and fall of self-management at Malta Drydocks; what trade union members think about their unions; and the impact of European Union 'experts' in the evolution of local industrial relations. The book also includes a full copy of the EIRA; a number of appendices and an index. This is the first book on such an important subject since Industrial Relations in Malta was written by Joseph Attard in 1984.
