Multilateral environmental agreements have over the last four decades emerged as the preferred avenue to address inter-state environmental issues such as climate change. This book analyses the possibilities as well as the limitations of environmental treaty making between states. The book considers the structures and processes that lead to the successful adoption of the Paris Agreement - and contrasting them with other attempts that failed in bringing states together under a legally-binding solution. Christina Voigt explores the whole "life-cycle" of multilateral environmental agreements. Also emphasised is the impact of emerging economies in shaping international environmental regimes.

Working for Ford (1984) describes what it is like to work in a car factory, often in the words of the workers themselves. It also reveals the process by which large-scale industries seek to overcome industrial conflict and the way in which unions, shop-floor workers and shop stewards express their political and economic aspirations.

This book presents a critical analysis of the informal business sector and explores how it can be effectively leveraged to contribute to inclusive and sustainable economic development within BRICS+ nations and the Global South.Drawing on insights from dualistic economic theory, the dynamics of informal markets, and institutional roles in economic growth, the authors emphasize the need for nuanced and evidence-based policy approaches. Through the application of key theoretical frameworks-including the Lewis Model, segmented labour market theory, and new institutional economics-the book evaluates the sector's role in shaping economic development indicators across BRICS+ nations and the Global South. In particular, the volume provides policy frameworks to support the formalization and empowerment of informal enterprises, contributing to inclusive growth and resilient economic systems. It also analyses and offers solutions on how the informal sector can best be engaged and explains that in order to create policies that effectively harness the informal business sector's potential for economic development, a deeper understanding of it is imperative. Over the course of the book, ideas from the fields of dualistic economies, the dynamics of the informal sector, and the function of institutions in economic growth are incorporated.Targeted at scholars, policymakers, and practitioners in the fields of entrepreneurship, development economics, and informal enterprise, the book offers both academic insights and practical policy recommendations. It serves as a valuable resource for understanding the structural, cultural, and institutional forces influencing the informal sector in emerging economies.

Routledge Library Editions: Work & Society

Originally published in 1964, at a time of much public unease regarding redundancy, this book contains the results of a comprehensive survey, inspired by a suggestion of the then Minister of Labour that the mass redundancies in the Midlands motor industry of 1956 merited a full-scale investigation. The findings are based on an analysis of a 1 in 10 sample of men made redundant in Birmingham in the period. Among the matters examined are the difficulties encountered in obtaining work after redundancy; the range of geographical mobility and the role played by the then employment exchanges in securing new employment. Other chapters focus on the financial hardship caused; the resort to savings and the impact of the redundancies on the gender balance in the workforce. The impact of the dismissals on trade union affiliation is also considered, as are the men's verdicts on the 'fairness' of the selection procedure adopted.

New Directions in the Philosophy of Education

This book delves into a novel philosophical and moral analysis of the mass formal schooling system. In the light of the routine and unjust systemic harm to primary- and secondary-aged children caused by the mass formal schooling system, the book acknowledges the need for making efforts towards non-harmful educational alternatives.The book undertakes a rights-based and harm-rejecting critique of the mass formal schooling system, placing its ideologies and practices under the microscope. The volume proposes that students have a right to defend themselves and that others have an obligation to defend them and work towards systems and educational practices rooted in peace and non-harm. Chapters discuss themes such as self-defence, student resistance, and educational vanguardism. Peace education movements and frameworks are considered in a discussion on the development and viability of alternative pedagogical approaches. In examining how the mass schooling system has established itself as the only viable conception of education, making it difficult to imagine the alternatives, the book urges a new reimagining of what education means.This book is of relevance to researchers of philosophy of education and education studies, academics, postgraduates and scholars of education, and anyone who is interested in a moral analysis of the dominant education system of our time.
