Understanding Labor LawThis book provides a comprehensive survey & analysis of a wide range of labor law topics, dealing with issues covered in most labor law courses, such as organizing, collective bargaining, strikes, picketing, lockouts, & boycotts. In addition, an introductory chapter deals with developments in employment-at-will law. The book also covers topics often dealt with in advanced labor law courses, such as enforcement of the labor agreement, preemption, antitrust, union members' rights & the duty of fair representation. Augmenting discussion of major cases included in labor law casebooks, this text discusses NLRB decisions & refers to secondary sources where appropriate, making it an ideal starting point for labor law research.\ Each chapter concludes with a list of "Chapter Highlights", summarizing key concepts, especially those which students often misunderstand. This feature makes the book particularly helpful as a study aid.\ |
