Italy: Limited Policy Responses and Industrial Relations in Flux, Leading to Aggravated Inequalities

In: Work Inequalities in the Crisis

Abstract
This book offers a unique combination of research, case studies and policy discussions. An assessment of national trends in 30 European countries precedes case studies of 14 of them, in which noted European specialists report on individual enterprises or sectors. The volume’s survey of national- and local-level policy solutions contributes to identifying those responses that strengthen economic competitiveness, preserve social cohesion and do not deepen inequalities.
