Book Synopsis Decent Work and Transnational Governance by : Thorsten Göbel
Download or read book Decent Work and Transnational Governance written by Thorsten Göbel and published by Nomos Verlagsgesellschaft. This book was released on 2010 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This dissertation provides guidance for policy and research on how the enforcement of core labor standards in supplier factories of transnational corporations can be improved. The book not only performs a comparative impact assessment of three multi-stakeholder initiatives (MSIs), but also develops an analytical model about the influence of "inclusiveness" on MSIs' effectiveness. MSIs are institutions of transnational governance. Several of them - founded in the international textile, garment, footwear, and sporting goods industry - address problems with labor rights violations in global supply chains that neither states nor transnational corporations have been able or willing to solve. The book asks to what extent different MSIs were successful in improving working conditions in supplier factories in developing countries. It performs an analysis of the International Labor Organization's Better Factories Cambodia Program, the Fair Labor Association, and the Foreign Trade Association of the German Retail Trade-Deutsche Gesellschaft f r Technische Zusammenarbeit (AVE-GTZ) project, using nearly 50 qualitative interviews. The book argues that the variation of degrees of effectiveness depends on the different approaches that underlie the work of each MSI: social dialogue, responsible competitiveness, or risk management.

This book was released on 2007-11 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Seminar paper from the year 2004 in the subject Politics - International Politics - Topic: Globalization, Political Economics, grade: 1,3 (A), Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz (Political Science), course: International Financial Institutions: Friend or Foe?, 18 entries in the bibliography, language: English, abstract: This paper tries to determine causes for the only limited impact of labor movement. First, I will outline the neo-Gramscian approach to International Political Economy with its central concepts of hegemony and counter-hegemony. From a neo-Gramscian perspective, the labor movement is regarded as a counterhegemonic project which tries to change the hegemonic institution WTO to its advantage. I will show that the need for a social clause arose from tensions within the neoliberal order. In the analysis, the focus will be on the thesis that the labor movement itself is too divided and therefore does not represent a uniform strategy which would be necessary for the building of counter-hegemony. More particularly, a deep division runs between North and South. I will set up the thesis that the perception of an antagonism between Northern and Southern interests is further fueled by nationalist populist movements in developed countries, which themselves have their origins the neoliberal mode of production. The Singapore Ministerial Conference of the WTO in 1996 is the background for discussion because the introduction of labor issues rejected then and further attempts to revive the debate have not led to other results yet1. The dominance of neoliberalism and the social forces of capital will be overviewed in short because they benefit from the current absence of labor standards and therefore oppose the counter-hegemonic movement. The results will be summarized in the conclusion chapter.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This book examines and evaluates various private initiatives to enforce fair labor standards within global supply chains. Using unique data (internal audit reports, and access to more than 120 supply chain factories and 700 interviews in 14 countries) from several major global brands, including NIKE, HP, and the International Labor Organization's Factory Improvement Programme in Vietnam, this book examines both the promise and the limitations of different approaches to actually improve working conditions, wages, and working hours for the millions of workers employed in today's global supply chains. Through a careful, empirically grounded analysis of these programs, this book illustrates the mix of private and public regulation needed to address these complex issues in a global economy"--
