Decent Globalisation

Beschreibung

250 million children working, 200 million people unemployed against their will and around 750 million employees do not earn enough to keep their families above the absolute poverty line of 1,9 US Dollar per day. Terrifying facts in the face of only a bit more than 3 billion employees on the whole planet! We all agree that humane working conditions give globalisation a human face and therefore provide a necessary step for its acceptance. Disagreement however dominates the debate about strategies and instruments to define and implement such working conditions. The installation and enforcement of fundamental labour law regulations with worldwide acceptance will not be reached by violent demonstrations and aggressive attitudes against economy and Multinational Corporations. It needs facts and suggestions which point into the right direction with a close look at the interconnection of labour law standards, international commercial law and fundamental rights of workers worldwide.
