Why is it important?
The findings show that cross border social dialogue needs a universally accepted regulatory framework. At global or European level this framework provides the basis for social partners to shape social policy, but collective bargaining, which is the dominant form in national industrial relations models cannot be replicated at international level.
Perspectives
I hope this article from the employers' point of view brings a fresh perspective to academic research, which tends to focus mostly on the trade union perspective of social dialogue.
