Prof Keith Ewing and John Hendy QC in the pamphlet "Reconstruction after the crisis: A manifesto for collective bargaining", trace the historical background to the current economic crisis - including the dismantling of trade union rights by successive governments since 1980 - and set out a viable alternative for economic growth based on international law and best European practices.
The end result is a considered and fully evidence-based policy recommendation summed up in a succinct ten point manifesto for collective bargaining, which has already attracted the support of nine major unions including PCS.
