Jayne
"In 1964 werd de eerste 'Ik Jan Cremer' opgedragen aan sekssymbool en actrice Jayne Mansfield. Ze noemde het boek "a wild and sexy masterpiece" en de auteur "my Pop Hero". Ruim tien jaar geleden verscheen Jan Cremers 'Derde Boek', waarin het contact tussen Cremer en Mansfield in de jaren zestig uit de doeken wordt gedaan. Het autobiografische verslag van hun gemeenschappelijke avontuur is nu voor het eerst verkrijgbaar in een aparte uitgave.'Omdat Jan Cremer na een oorlog met zijn Amerikaanse uitgever financieel aan de grond zit, gaat hij ermee akkoord de wereldberoemde Jayne Mansfield te vergezellen op een publiciteits- en nachtclubtournee. Zij is zijn jeugdidool, en als promotiestunt gaat hij met haar op de foto. De foto wordt een romance, en voor Jan het weet sleurt de dominante Mansfield haar Hollandse beau mee op een krankzinnige reis door Zuid-Amerika. Door de ogen van Jan Cremer zien we hoe de onmogelijke diva ?La Mansfield? zich wentelt in haar beroemdheid en haar omgeving betovert én tot wanhoop brengt."--Back cover.
A decade of experience with the European Company
This publication of the SEEurope Network provides a comprehensive overview of the legislation on the European company (SE – Societas Europaea) and its history and development. It assesses the overall significance and impact of the SE on the business sector and on worker involvement in Europe and provides an outlook for the future of the SE. The publication also makes specific recommendations for policymakers regarding the future revision of the SE legislation specifically as well as European company law and corporate governance generally. Key questions addressed in the book are: How has the SE been implemented in practice? How great has the uptake of the European Company by the business community been? Are there significant differences between countries and sectors? What impact has the European Company had on business practice? Has it improved company mobility and flexibility? What impact has it had on national industrial relations systems and Social Europe? To what extent has it inspired other legislative initiatives by the EU Commission? What will the likely future development of the European Company be?

European Works Councils in the Netherlands
Derived from the renowned multi-volume International Encyclopaedia of Laws, this monograph on the Netherlands not only describes and analyses the legal aspects of labour relations, but also examines labour relations practices and developing trends. It provides a survey of the subject that is both usefully brief and sufficiently detailed to answer most questions likely to arise in any pertinent legal setting. Both individual and collective labour relations are covered in ample detail, with attention to such underlying and pervasive factors as employment contracts, suspension of the contracts, dismissal laws and covenant of non-competition, as well as international private law. The author desc...
Exercising Voice Across Borders
Since the passage of the 2005 EU Directive on cross-border mergers of limited liability companies, mergers between firms based in different countries have become an increasingly important form of corporate reorganisation in Europe. These mergers have great significance for workers' rights to information, consultation and participation. A new book written and edited by Jan Cremers (TLS) and Sigurt Vitols (WZB-Berlin) contains the results of a study of workers' rights to information, consultation and participation in EU and national law covering cross-border mergers. Based on an analysis of available statistics, nine national legal regimes and seven case studies, the authors argue that the provisions for workers' rights under the Directive are inadequate, both during the merger procedure and in the new post-merger entity. It remains to be seen whether the deficits identified in the study can be successfully addressed by the implementation of the EU Company Law Package, a new legislative initiative regulating different types of cross-border reorganisations.
iCity. Transformative Research for the Livable, Intelligent, and Sustainable City
This open access book presents the exciting research results of the BMBF funded project iCity carried out at University of Applied Science Stuttgart to help cities to become more liveable, intelligent and sustainable, to become a LIScity. The research has been pursued with industry partners and NGOs from 2017 to 2020. A LIScity is increasingly digitally networked, uses resources efficiently, and implements intelligent mobility concepts. It guarantees the supply of its grid-bound infrastructure with a high proportion of renewable energy. Intelligent cities are increasingly human-centered, integrative, and flexible, thus placing the well-being of the citizens at the center of developments to i...
Workers without Borders
How the European Union handles posted workers is a growing issue for a region with borders that really are just lines on a map. A 2008 story, dissected in Ines Wagner’s Workers without Borders, about the troubling working conditions of migrant meat and construction workers, exposed a distressing dichotomy: how could a country with such strong employers’ associations and trade unions allow for the establishment and maintenance of such a precarious labor market segment? Wagner introduces an overlooked piece of the puzzle: re-regulatory politics at the workplace level. She interrogates the position of the posted worker in contemporary European labour markets and the implications of and regu...
