TRANSCRIPT
Labour Law
Building on their successful cases and materials book, Collins, Ewing andMcColgan present an entirely restructured and freshly written new textbookon employment law. Comprehensive and engaging, it combines detailed anal-ysis and commentary on the law with short contextual extracts to fully equipthe labour law student. Carefully balancing clear exposition of legal principleswith critical and scholarly analysis, this is the definitive textbook on the subjectwritten by the UK’s foremost employment law scholars. The book’s twenty-part structure maps logically onto either a full or half module employment lawcourse. Chapter introductions and conclusions and an uncluttered text designcarefully guide the student through the material. Innovative case studies showthe law ‘in action’ and discussion of the globalised workplace gives the work acontemporary feel. Put simply, this is required reading for all students of thesubject.
Hugh Collins is Professor of English Law at the London School of Economics.
K. D. Ewing is Professor of Public Law at King’s College London.
Aileen McColgan is Professor of Human Rights Law at King’s College London.

The Law in Context Series
Editors: William Twining (University College London),
Christopher McCrudden (Lincoln College, Oxford) and
Bronwen Morgan (University of Bristol).
Since 1970 the Law in Context series has been in the forefront of the movement to
broaden the study of law. It has been a vehicle for the publication of innovative scholarly
books that treat law and legal phenomena critically in their social, political and economic
contexts from a variety of perspectives. The series particularly aims to publish scholarly
legal writing that brings fresh perspectives to bear on new and existing areas of law
taught in universities. A contextual approach involves treating legal subjects broadly,
using materials from other social sciences, and from any other discipline that helps to
explain the operation in practice of the subject under discussion. It is hoped that this
orientation is at once more stimulating and more realistic than the bare exposition
of legal rules. The series includes original books that have a different emphasis from
traditional legal textbooks, while maintaining the same high standards of scholarship.
They are written primarily for undergraduate and graduate students of law and of other
disciplines, but also appeal to a wider readership. In the past, most books in the series
have focused on English law, but recent publications include books on European law,
globalisation, transnational legal processes, and comparative law.

Preface
This textbook aims to provide a comprehensive study guide for students inlabour law or employment law courses. It is divided into twenty chapters,corresponding approximately to a full-year university course. It includes botha comprehensive discussion of collective labour law issues as well as individualemployment law disputes. For shorter or more focused courses, teachers mayprefer to concentrate on some of the chapters or parts of the book and will findthat each chapter is largely self-contained. As well as providing a descriptionand analysis of the law, in the spirit of the Law in Context series, the textbookoffers criticisms of the law drawn from different perspectives and disciplines.Most chapters also include brief vignettes, often based on examples drawn fromthe news, which should provide a stimulus to classroom discussion.
Although the authors have written an earlier book on labour law together,this text is completely restructured and almost entirely new. Responsibility forthe different chapters has been divided unevenly: Collins: Chapters 1, 3–7, 10,11 and 18–20; Ewing: Chapters 2, 8 and 12–17; and McColgan: Chapter 9.
We are grateful to the editors of this series and the publishers at CambridgeUniversity Press, especially Sinead Moloney, for their encouragement for writingthe book and their patience in awaiting its delivery.
In the course of preparing this text, the authors have incurred a number ofdebts. We would like to acknowledge in particular the advice of Steve Acheson(Blacklist Support Group), Daniel Blackburn (ICTUR), Alan Bogg (Oxford),Nicola Countouris (UCL), Ruth Dukes (Glasgow), Kate Ewing (Unison),Jonathan Hayward (Unite), John Hendy QC, Brian Higgins (Blacklist Sup-port Group), Carolyn Jones (Institute of Employment Rights), VirginiaMantouvalou (UCL), Jim Mowatt (Unite), Mick O’Sullivan (Unite), ToniaNovitz (Bristol), Hannah Reed (TUC) and Dave Smith (Blacklist SupportGroup). We are also pleased to acknowledge the pioneering work of RosemaryOwens (Adelaide), Joellen Riley (Sydney) and Jill Murray (La Trobe) who appre-ciated the importance of globalisation for books of this kind before we did.
We have endeavoured to state the law up to 1 January 2012.
