Labour law and worker protection in developing countries
06 February 2010
This study reflects on labour law’s ability, in its current form, to protect workers’ rights and secure decent working conditions in the developing world. It identifies and examines structural weaknesses and challenges brought about by globalization and, against this background, explores regulatory and policy responses which have been made at different governance levels to enhance the scope and application of labour regulation, focusing particularly on Latin America, South Asia and southern Africa. This is a co-publication with Hart Publishing.
