Reseña del libro
This book originates from the research project 'New discourses in labour law' held at the European University Institute. A detailed analysis of part-time work regulation is presented for seven European countries, in order to ascertain how internal domestic choices of the legislatures have merged into the 'Open method of co-ordination'. The impact of European employment policies is considered in parallel with the implementation of the Directive on part-time work, thus providing a complete overview of both soft and hard law mechanisms available to national policy-makers. In this original work, the inter-action between law and policy emerges as a dynamic and constantly changing process of exchange between national and supranational actors, through the use of concrete examples of law-making. Labour law is put forward as being central in the current evolution of European law, and this centrality is presented as a confirmation of innovation and continuity in regulatory techniques.
Book News Annotation:
Suggesting that new discourses in labor law are emerging from a European normative process in which the employment law and policies of the European Union and the employment laws and policies of the member states, Sciarra (labor law, U. of Florence Law School, Italy), Davies (commercial law, London School of Economics and Political Science, UK), and Freedland (employment law, U. of Oxford, UK) present 10 essays that examine such a normative process in the case of the regulation of part-time work. Opening essays spell out the theoretical background and introduce the development of European regulation of part-time work. The remaining contributions provide country case studies of France, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, Spain, Sweden, and the United Kingdom.

Synopsis:
This book examines the influence of EC rules on European nations' policies towards part-time working.
Synopsis:
Part-time work has been the fastest growing of all forms of "non-standard" work. All member states of the European Union have given increasing attention to its regulation over the past quarter century. This book examines the influence of European Community rules and procedures on the development by member states of their policies towards part-time employment. It consists of an analysis of the relevant EU rules, a consideration of the national policies and the impact upon them of the EU provisions, as well as a suggested framework for the identification of these influences.
