Article 3 Compliance of the USA with International Law BOOK REVIEWS and does not attempt to provide a comprehensive global analysis. Affirmative action statutes, regulations, and judicial decisions interpreting the laws are not Sowell's focus. The reader should not expect a legal analysis. Sowell does present a critical view of the impact of affirmative action from social, cultural, anthropological, and political perspectives. I would highly recommend this book to readers studying in those disciplines and to individuals interested in expanding their horizons to think about affirmative action in a way that may challenge their assumptions. Jean Callihan Cornell Law Library Ithaca, NY 14853 Comparative Labour Law and Industrial Relations in Industrialized Market Economies. Edited by R. Blanpain. 8th and revised edition. The Hague; London: Kluwer Law International, 2004. Pp. xxxii, 664. ISBN 90-411- 2289-3. US $165.00 This work, a collection of essays which updates and revises most of the material from the previous edition', provides an international and comparative approach to labor law and information on legal procedure and development within individual industrialized countries. The book provides much useful information to attorneys, law professors and students. In his introduction to this work, Professor Blanpain observes that the need for comparative studies of labor law and industrial relations is increasing with 1) the growth of the free movement of labor, 2) greater international and multinational commerce and investment, and 3) expanding communication and information technology. Contributors to this book come from several countries and represent perspectives from a range of contexts. The 664 page book is divided into four parts and consists of twenty three chapters. Each chapter concludes with a bibliography or list of sources, which provides a starting point for further research. The first part with three chapters relates to methodology. An introductory chapter provides definitions and an overview of the methodology of comparative labor research. The next two chapters provide valuable information on print and internet resources relevant to comparative labor law research. 1 R. Blanpain & C. Engels (editors), Comparative Labour Lenv and Industrial Relations in Industrialized Market Economies. 71h revised edition,. The Hague, London: Kluwer Law International, 2001. 2005] 481 INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF LEGAL INFORMATION The next part consists of three chapters, two of which are concerned with international and regional nongovernmental actors, including international employers' organizations and the international trade union movement. The other chapter in this section discusses human resource management. Part three of the book concentrates on sources of regulation. Chapter 7 covers international labor law with discussions of the International Labour Organization (ILO), and its history, conventions, and labor standards. The chapter also has brief references to regional sources of law. The next chapter in this section provides a good overview of the European Union's employment and social policies and their legal development. Chapter 9 discusses the development and meaning of the OECD's Guidelines for Multinational Enterprises. The final chapter in the section discusses conflict of law issues that arise in industrial relations and employment contracts, and international and national sources of law which have addressed these concerns. The fourth part, international developments and comparative studies, consists of thirteen chapters, each one focusing on a specific issue relevant to contemporary labor law and industrial relations. The discussions follow a comparative model and provide an overview of both international and national developments. The topics covered include freedom of association, self-employed workers, equality and employment discrimination, employment privacy, employment security, national trade unions, employee representational participation, the European works council directive, collective bargaining, the law of strikes and lockouts, settlement of disputes over rights, and settlement of disputes over interests. This book is intended to provide an overview of various issues common to industrialized labor systems. This does not allow for in-depth investigation of the economic, legal, and social complexities of national labor law systems. Nonetheless, this work provides a starting point for further research, illustrating common themes and issues and providing examples of different legal solutions to them.
