The authors argue that labour law must be conceived and analysed in the context of political economy and the dynamic process of capitalist development: of economic constraints and opportunities, of politics and power, of government policy and political democracy. Their analysis reveals an urgent need to restate the principles of industrial democracy and citizenship for the post-industrial era, calling for political intervention and far-reaching institution-building.<\/p><p>The Symposium will be an open and participative discussion of the book from a political economy perspective. The event will be introduced by Antonio Garcia-Mu\u00f1oz (University of Luxembourg) and Nikolas Vagdoutis (University of Luxembourg). Vladimir Bogoeski (Assistant Professor in European Private Law at the University of Amsterdam) and Johan Van der Walt (Professor at the University of Luxembourg) will contribute to the debate acting as discussants.
