随着工会的衰落，过去二十年来英国工作场所出现了代表性差距。在研究这一差距的本质并评估当前弥补这一差距的尝试时，本书借鉴了 ESRC 著名的“未来工作计划”的原创研究。在这本经过编辑的文集中，一些英国领先的雇佣关系研究人员提供了工会和工人代表方面新发展的富有洞察力的证据，重点关注“知识经济”中的伙伴关系、性别以及工人态度和组织等关键主题。贡献者开辟了新天地，不仅研究了立法变革对以前无组织的雇员的影响，而且还研究了无代表的工人现在获得发言权的各种方式。总而言之，《工人代表的未来》是一本令人兴奋且经过深入研究的书，它让读者真正了解如何挑战许多工作场所的民主赤字。
As trade unions have declined, a representation gap has appeared in British workplaces over the past two decades. In examining the nature of this gap and assessing current attempts to close it, this book draws on original research from the ESRC's prestigious Future of Work Programme. In this edited collection, some of the UK's leading employment relations researchers present insightful evidence of new developments in trade union and worker representation, focusing on key themes such as partnership, gender, and worker attitudes and organization in the 'knowledge economy'. Breaking new ground, contributors examine not only the consequence of legislative change for previously unorganized employees, but also the diverse ways in which unrepresented workers are now being given a voice. Altogether The Future of Worker Representation is a stimulating and thoroughly researched book which gives the reader genuine understanding of the ways in which the democratic deficit in many workplaces can be challenged.
