The collective work written by economists, a lawyer and an expert on EC has appeal for
extension of several processes of the economy, despite some legislative and case law
developments in this area since its issue in 2006. If it is regrettable that a book about
work and layoffs was not written by the first question, namely union employees or
unemployed-is-s, it remains that the finding of globalized economy and leads to permanent
restructuring proposals and union and political tracks against layoffs. Decrypting and
deconstructing the dominant pattern of thought, it reminds both that employees do not have
to pay for choosing a system that employs them and the opportunity to dent a number of
claims against reformist scholars like layoffs, carried by the movement of Licenci'elles
today.
No need to have important concepts in economics to delve into reading even if some
passages remain abstract. Recalling that labor law is both the result of a power struggle
between social classes and technical serving the interests of employers or employees, are,
it is ambivalent following situations, delete redundancies can out of the myth of law work
offline social realities. Along pamphlet against redundancies, shared between hard facts
and analysis of the general situation also allows requestionner the private law concept of
means of production, redistribution of wealth and the logic of the capitalist system
without the back fully involved.
More for trade unionists and "experts", the book contains many references to the labor
law, the Constitution, or even the processes of rehabilitation in a collective redundancy
procedure, but unfortunately does not allow for finding proposals which are employee-could
greatly mobilize. Surprisingly, the criticism of the non-economic aspects of layoffs may
be surprised by the fervor of the authors on the frontline of all the layoffs and also
suggest a critical view of some interesting productions to the industrial conversion
without too explain who could take decisions and how.
The book has the merit of helping to understand, analyze and control proponents of the
capitalist system, both in the legal economy. Sounding strong and stumbling about modesty
personified by many not to fight against the dismissal of all kinds load, the authors have
unfortunately stopped on the way, so much of the road was made. Claims, or at least the
solutions proposed in the book, although transient for us, may seem like a final solution
for others.
