"The idea at the basis of this paper is that the international recognition of the right to strike as a fondamental right had an impact not only within countries where the right to strike is not recognized as a fondamental right, but also within countries that do recognize the right to strike as a fondamental right. In the latter, the international recognition of the right to strike contributed to the development of disputes resolution methods which are non-judiciary, but regulated by collective agreements."

"Le droit turc est marqué par une attitude traditionnellement restrictive à l'égard de la formation des tribunaux, ainsi qu'à l'égard de l'arbitrage dans les litiges sociaux, en vue de protéger les garanties qu'accorderait une justice étatique composée de magistrats de métier, indépendants et impartiaux. Or, la lourde charge des chambres sociales de la Cour de Cassation a nécessité une recherche de voies alternatives de résolution des litiges sociaux, avec un recours à la médiation et l'arbitrage. Par contre, dans le domaine des relations collectives, le rôle protecteur de l'État se trouve dans une certaine mesure relayé par les syndicats, acteurs principaux, et la médiation et l'arbitrage s'y trouvent réglementés de longue date."

"L'article analyse les cas d'arbitrage obligatoire prévus par le droit du travail espagnol, dans les conflits économiques ou d'intérêts, pour mettre fin à la grève et pour résoudre la prétention de non-application des conditions de travail accordées dans la convention collective. Il conclut que l'arbitrage obligatoire peut seulementêtre justifié dans certains cas et, spécialement, dans les services essentiels ; à savoir ceux dont l'interruption suite à un conflit pourrait mettre en danger, dans l'ensemble ou dans une partie de la population, la vie, la sécurité ou la santé des personnes. Ainsi, l'arbitrage obligatoire dans la grève ou dans la négociationcollective doit être considéré avec méfiance, car il peut porter atteinte aux droits constitutionnels de grève, liberté syndicale et négociation collective et, de même, violer les instruments du droit international du travail et, en particulier, les conventions nº 87 et 98 de l'OIT."

"This paper deals with Alternative Dispute Resolution in labour relations within a company in the French context. By contrast with the United States and Canada, mediation and arbitration are rarely used in France for resolving individual or collective labour relations disputes. It is therefore interesting to study such voice procedures in labour relations in France and analyse their impact on procedural justice and equity within the company. The study also analyses the incentives to use mediation/arbitration, in labour relations, as well as the disincentives. It highlights the importance of information and communication with the employees in fostering positive attitudes to it and reducing their fears. This is illustrated by an empirical study of the French subsidiary of the IBM Corporation. We focus our attention on the IBM ‘open door' policy and describe the results of a quantitative statistical analysis of 203 respondents."

"This report is part of a series of projects from the Foundation which focuses on aspects of industrial relations in the ten acceding countries in the run-up to enlargement. It looks specifically at the role of social dialogue in resolving industrial relations conflicts. The report gives an overview of the existing institutional and regulatory frameworks for industrial action prevailing in each country, then goes on to describe the various systems in place to deal with conflict resolution. The overall aim of the research is to show how social dialogue can be harnessed to devise a road map for industrial peace. The ten national reports are also available (EF0446, EF0447, EF0448, EF0449, EF0450, EF0451, EF0452, EF0453, EF0454, EF0455)."

"This article revisits and critically analyses the panel's decision and reasoning in the dispute between the United States and Guatemala under the labour provisions of the Dominican Republic–Central America Free Trade Agreement vis-à-vis the treaty interpretation rules under the Vienna Convention on the Law of Treaties. It further seeks to draw implications for the construction of labour provisions of the Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership (CPTPP). The article sheds light on the normative and theoretical rationales that underlie tradelabour linkages in general, and the labour provisions under such free trade agreements in particular. Ultimately, the paper makes a case for the dual structure of conditionality-based labour provisions, a legal characteristic that demands that each of them pursue two different goals, first, protecting labour rights as human rights (social goal) and second, securing the condition of fair competition in trade/ investment and preventing a race to the bottom in labour regulation (economic goal). With this proposal, it attempts to put the long-overlooked, deontologically normative value that labour provisions pursue in its right place without prejudice to their role of levelling the playing field."
