Today, Britain has fewer legal guarantees for workers and trade unions than most other European countries. This situation arises partly from a longstanding laissez faire attitude towards labour law on both sides of British industry. It is not simply the result of recent legislative changes.;This book is an examination of the legal conditions of the international/European framework within which they necessarily function. Lord Wedderburn formulates an agenda for legislative priorities to meet the next century, and argues for new ways of understanding labour law in the technological age. Lord Wedderburn is the author of ""The Worker and the Law"".
