Modern Labor Economics 11e showcases labor economics as a applied discipline of micro and macro concept, not a sector peripheral to the core of analytical economics, but rather an essential component of that core. In the Eleventh edition, the writers present new and revised discussions of public policy matters and coverage of the current economic crisis, still merging traditional subjects such as labor regulation, structure of unions, and collective bargaining.
