POLITICISING COMMODIFICATION
European Governance and Labour Politics from the Financial Crisis to the Covid Emergency
Cambridge University Press, 2024
Paberback: £ 29.99 • ISBN: 978-1-0090-5436-2
Until the financial crisis of 2008, European labour politics has mainly been shaped by horizontal EU market integration through the free movement of goods, capital, services and people. Since 2011, the latter has been complemented by vertical EU integration through the direct surveillance of EU member states. The resulting new economic governance regime of the EU opens contradictory possibilities for labour movements and the European integration process.
Our ERC project explores the challenges and possibilities that the EU's new economic governance regime poses to labour politics, social justice, and democracy in Europe.
