Programma
Part 1 (Weeks 1-6): 21 February 2022 – 30 March 2022
Taught by Dr. Manoj Dias-Abey, Lecturer in Labour Law at the University of Bristol, UK.
The first part of this course provides a survey of the major systems of EU, international, and transnational labour law that regulate working conditions. We pay particular attention to how these different systems interact and influence each other. As well as focusing solely on the technical law, this course will incorporate insights from other disciplines such as political economy, sociology, and policy studies to gain a better understanding of how work is governed. In this sense, this course sits within the socio-legal tradition in legal scholarship, which aims to study law within its social, economic and political contexts. To ensure that the material that we cover is contemporary and relevant, we engage with some cutting-edge issues such as the future of work, work in the “gig economy”, migrant workers, trafficking, and labour activism.
Each of our two-hour classes will be run as follows:
• 50 minute lecture from me about the topic. I will do most of the talking but you will have the opportunity to ask questions and seek clarification.
• 10 minute break.
• 50 minute small group discussion around a reading that you will be expected to read before each class. These readings have been selected because either they highlight important issues or raise provocative questions; please read the pieces critically and think about whether you agree with the authors’ arguments. Where I have not provided a weblink, I will be uploading copies of the readings one week in advance to our electronic learning management system.
• 10 minute summary of main learning by me.
Please note that the first 4 weeks (21/2-16/3) will be taking place in person in X. In the final two weeks (21/3-30-3), classes will be held online (details to follow).
