In Partisanship, Globalization, and Canadian Labour Market Policy, Rodney Haddow and Thomas Klassen explore this contentious issue by comparing labour market policy in Canada?s most populous provinces, Ontario, Quebec, British Columbia, and Alberta, between 1990 and 2003.Using the most up-to-date theoretical approaches available, Haddow and Klassen examine industrial relations, workers? compensation, occupational health, employment standards, training, and social assistance, measuring the impact of partisanship and globalization on policy-making in these areas. They situate Canada in relation to recent international scholarship on the comparative political economy of developed democracies, and explore the role that institutions play in conditioning labour market policy.Partisanship, Globalization, and Canadian Labour Market Policy will not only be of interest to experts working in the field of labour market policy, but also to students and teachers of comparative political economy, partisanship, and governance in Canada. 410 0$aStudies in comparative political economy and public policy ;$v25. 606 $aLabor market$zCanada$xProvinces 606 $aGlobalization$xEconomic aspects$zCanada 606 $aLabor market$zCanada$xProvinces$vCase studies 606 $aLabor market$zGermany 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aLabor market$xProvinces. 615 0$aGlobalization$xEconomic aspects 615 0$aLabor market$xProvinces 615 0$aLabor market 676 $a331.120971 700 $aHaddow$b Rodney S.$01040299 702 $aKlassen$b Thomas$f1957- 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910456552803321 996 $aPartisanship, globalization, and Canadian labour market policy$92463042 997 $aUNINA
