Publisher's Synopsis
This book provides a grounding in all the major concepts of labour markets with supporting theories and empirical evidence. The text encourages analysis and critical thinking, not only covering theory and historical perspectives, but prompting readers to confront new labour issues as they encounter them. The coverage of worker-employer relationships offers some long-range findings with distinct applications for the future. The authors also offer a perspective on employment growth, displaying evidence that it cannot be analyzed using the usual labour demand models.
