The Politics of Labour Reform in Latin American Countries

The past several years have seen wide-ranging efforts at reforming the labor markets in a number of Latin American countries, with the aim of simultaneously broadening workforce participation and making Latin American companies more competitive in an increasingly globalized marketplace. This book offers a close look at the politics underlying reforms, both proposed and enacted, with a special focus on the region's largest economy, Brazil. Drawing links between political initiatives and international economic factors, it breaks new ground in the understanding of the nature of and impediments to labor market reform in the region.
