The document discusses key influences on bargaining approaches and whether state support for wage bargaining is declining. It covers several topics:
1. Actors in bargaining such as trade unions and employers faces pressures like declining membership and influence.
2. Bargaining processes are also under pressure, with decentralization of bargaining levels and inclusion of opt-out clauses in several countries.
3. Bargaining outcomes show pressure in the form of pay cuts or freezes, shorter agreements, and fewer agreements being reached.
4. The conclusions suggest that governments have substantially reconfigured bargaining systems in countries receiving financial assistance, indicating declining state support for the wage-bargaining model.

In December 2014 Professor Jason Heyes, along with Dr Paul Lewis from the University of Birmingham, co-hosted a one-day workshop on ‘Regulating work and employment: recent changes/future prospects’. The event was attended by representatives of ACAS, the Department of Business, Innovation and Skills (BIS), the CIPD and the Gangmasters Licensing Authority (GLA), as well as leading academics and early career researchers. The workshop was the culmination of a two-year project, funded by the British Academy and Leverhulme Trust, which has assessed the consequences of labour market policy reforms in the EU since the start of the economic crisis in 2008.
During the workshop, Jason Heyes, Paul Lewis and Mark Beatson – chief economist at the CIPD – discussed the implications of employment rights reforms for workers and employers while Dr Tim Vorley (Sheffield), Professor Ute Stephan (Aston) and Professor Simon Down (Anglia Ruskin) spoke about the impact of employment regulations on small businesses. Mark Heath from the GLA and Professor Linda Dickens from the University of Warwick assessed long-standing and emerging challenges facing government agencies responsible for ensuring compliance with employment rights while Tony Thomas and Paula Lovitt provided insights into BIS’ review of employment status.

Mapping varieties of industrial relations: Eurofound's conceptual framework a...Eurofound
Eurofound’s 2016 report Mapping key dimensions of industrial relations identified four key dimensions of industrial relations: industrial democracy, industrial competitiveness, social justice, and quality of work and employment. This report builds upon that earlier study, developing a dashboard of 45 indicators to assess how and to what extent the conceptual framework of these key dimensions can be applied at national level. The indicators were tested across the Member States by Eurofound’s Network of European Correspondents and show reasonable accuracy when used to map the predominant features and trends of the national industrial relations systems. The study confirms that a dashboard of indicators that can accurately measure and summarise the complex reality of industrial relations across the EU is a valuable tool for comparative research and a useful instrument for supporting policymakers, social partners and stakeholders. The report sets out a range of options for further developing this

Russian anarchist and anti-war movement in the third year of full-scale warAntti Rautiainen
Anarchist group ANA Regensburg hosted my online-presentation on 16th of May 2024, in which I discussed tactics of anti-war activism in Russia, and reasons why the anti-war movement has not been able to make an impact to change the course of events yet. Cases of anarchists repressed for anti-war activities are presented, as well as strategies of support for political prisoners, and modest successes in supporting their struggles.

moral basis on which the relation of employer and employed
should stand, and make the so-called law of the market the
sole regulator of that relation.”
(Dr. John Kells Ingram, address to the British TUC in Dublin )
• Clayton Anti-Trust Act (section 6)
• 'that the labor of a human being is a commodity or article
