Subject: Call for Papers GLU conference 2008

Dear colleagues,

please find attached the Call for Papers for  the Global Labour
University annual conference at the University of Campinas (Brazil) 28
-30  April 2008. 

The conference will focus on the  global development debate and trade
union strategies; looking at the implications of the current global
division of labour for trade unions and the need for a new development
agenda that is socially and environmentally sustainable. 

The workshop will bring together an international group of scholars and
trade unionists. It will feature working groups, paper presentations,
and panel discussions involving both academics and trade unionists. 
Papers will be presented mainly in small interactive working groups to
allow for in-depth discussion and development of ideas for possible
future research and cooperation. A selected number of papers will be
published in the 2008 GLU Yearbook 

Theoretical and empirical studies should focus on  current problems and
their impact on labour as well as the implications for trade union
practices. They should discuss possible policy options and trade union
practices that could  help  strengthening Unions and  broadening public
support for a labour agenda. 

Papers can be submitted in English, Spanish or Portuguese.

Please distribute the Call for Papers further through your networks. 

Sorry for any cross-posting

Best regards
