[Review of the Books 'The Global Economy, National States, and the Regulation of Labour', 'Globalization and Patterns of Labour Resistance', and 'The State and Globalization']

Abstract

[Excerpt] With their stress on complexity, contradiction, and flux, these books provide a solid analytical foundation and a wide-ranging comparative framework for researchers now seeking to understand the new, post-Seattle period. They also provide insights and ideas for activists confronting the neo-liberal offensive against workers' rights.
