The Contract of Employment
The contract of employment is the central legal institution of modern English employment law. It provides the foundation upon which most statutory employment rights are constructed; it provides a conduit for the implementation of norms negotiated in collective bargaining; and it continues to provide a contractual structure for the terms and conditions of employment for a significant proportion of the working population. The Contract of Employment provides the most ambitious and comprehensive treatise on the theoretical and doctrinal aspects of the English contract of employment in the common law world. Under the general editorship of Professor Mark Freedland, the text has been produced by a ...

Southeast Asian Affairs 2008
Since its inception in 1974, Southeast Asian Affairs (SEAA) has been an indispensable annual reference for generations of policy-makers, scholars, analysts, journalists, and others. Succinctly written by regional and international experts, SEAA illuminates significant issues and events of the previous year in each of the Southeast Asian nations and the region as a whole. Southeast Asian Affairs 2008 provides an informed and readable analysis of the events and developments in the region in 2007. In the regional section, the first two articles provide the political and economic overview of Southeast Asia. They are followed by an article on Indias geopolitics and Southeast Asia, and two articles on ASEAN. Eleven country reviews as well as four country-specific thematic chapters follow, delving into domestic political, economic, security, and social developments during 2007 and their implications for countries in the region and beyond.
Migrant Labour and the Reshaping of Employment Law
The presence of migrant workers has become a central feature of labour markets in highly developed countries. The International Labour Organisation estimates that in 2013 there were 112 million resident migrant workers in the 58 highest-income countries, who made up 16% of the workforce. Non-resident workers have also increasingly become part of the labour available for employment in other states, often on a temporary basis. This work takes a thematic and comparative approach to examine the profound implications of contemporary labour migration for employment law regimes in highly developed countries. In so doing, it aims to promote greater recognition of labour migration-related questions, ...
Readings on Islam in Southeast Asia
This volume of selected readings on Islam is a portrait of the Southeast Asian Islamic mosaic, with emphasis on the contemporary period. The collection of articles also serves to reflect the broad thematic interest of scholars — not only indigenous and foreign, but also Muslim and non-Muslim — who have contributed to an understanding of Islam in Southeast Asia.
Care, Migration and Human Rights
The continuum of exploitation that has historically defined the everyday of domestic work - exclusion from employment and social security standards and precarious migration status – has frequently been neglected. It is primarily the moments of crisis, incidents of human trafficking, slavery or forced labour, that have captured the attention of human rights law. Only recently has human rights law has begun to address the structured inequalities and exclusions that define the domain of domestic work. This book addresses the specific position of domestic workers in the context of evolving human rights norms. Drawing upon a broad range of case studies, this book presents a thorough examination of key issues such as the commodification of care, the impact of the jurisprudence of the Court of Justice of the European Union and the European Court of Human Rights on ‘primary care providers’, as well as the effect that trends in migration law have on migrant domestic workers. This volume will be of interest to lawyers, academics and policy makers in the fields of human rights, migration, and gender studies.

Cahaya Bintang Terkutuk
"""Wafa layaknya meteor yang melesat keluar dari lintasan edarnya dalam ruang beku tak terbatas, menjejak angkasa yang sepi di antara miliaran bintang lainnya, yang tetap setia di garis edar takdirnya, menunggu sampai saatnya big crunsh tiba. Ia keluar mengarungi angkasa untuk menemukan tuhannya yang bersembunyi di balik jasad kemanusiaannya. Dalam perjalanannya Wafa mendapati makhluk-makhluk yang terseret dalam lubang black hole yang menghisap apa pun di sekitarnya. Ia mencoba merengkuhnya dengan penuh cinta dan rasa kemanusiaannya pada hakikat kehidupan. Wafa sadar bahwa gesekannya dengan atmosfir takdir akan meleburkannya dalam ketiadaan abadi. Membangun satu keyakinan bahwa Tuhan masih tetap setia kepada makhluknya yang mencari jalan kembali tidaklah semudah memecahkan batu walau sekeras apa pun. Perjuangan itu akan selalu terjal karena Wafa sadar sepenuhnya bahwa Tuhan ada di puncak segala singgasana di atas sana."""
Patterns of Exploitation
"With an estimated 164 million workers globally, migrant workers are an essential component of contemporary workplaces. Despite their number and indispensability in the global economy, these workers suffer workplace violations that range from underpayment of wages, to unsafe work conditions through to sexual assault and even industrial manslaughter. Patterns of Exploitation documents the bases for exploitation. It does this through a comparison of labor laws and practices in six labor law jurisdictions and four countries, over a twenty-year period: Australia, Canada (Ontario, British Columbia and Alberta), the United Kingdom (England) and the United States (California). Starting with a start...
