Industrial Relations and Labour Law: Recovery of a Shared Tradition?

Year: 2024
Type: book-chapter
Abstract: This chapter explores the relationship between industrial relations and labour law, subjects that have developed in silos to some extent in more recent decades but that clearly have a great deal to offer each other given their common focus on industrial justice and mobilization in relation to law and the legal and regulatory system, and the empirical contribution of industrial relations to a more contextualized, sociological or socio-legal understanding of law in relation to work and employment. The chapter highlights the importance of the interplay of social norms with formal legal norms, the interaction of workers with society at large and its political and legal institutions, and particular country-, locality- or industry-specific institutional contexts. The call for the ‘recovery of a shared tradition’ highlights these interrelationships and the subsequent scope for shared agendas in the future.
