Synopsis
Has there been a transformation of public service employment relations in Europe since the crisis? Public Service Management and Employment Relations in Europe examines public service employment relations after the economic crisis, including analysis of more than thirty years of public service and workforce reform, and addresses the interplay between an emerging post-crisis public service sector and the consequences for the state, employers and trade unions in core public services. Written by leading national experts, this book places the economic crisis in a longer timeframe and examines how far trends in public sector employment relations were reinforced or reversed by the crisis. It provides an up-to-date analysis of the restructuring of public service employment relations in 12 major European countries, including analysis of little studied central and Eastern European countries. This book will be vital reading for researchers, academics and PhD Students in the fields of Public Management, Public Administration, Employment Relations, and Human Resource Management.

Newspapers & Magazines
"The dynamics of employment relations in the wake of the financial crisis have become an issue of major political and social concern, nowhere more than so than in the public sector. As this outstanding collection of essays from leading scholars in the field demonstrates, public service employment relations in Europe have been profoundly influenced by the crisis, but in divergent, distinctive and quite different ways. By comparing and contrasting the experience of European countries, this book lays out the challenges facing policy-makers, public managers and employees as they seek to make sense of the new post-crisis environment. Highly recommended." -Rhys Andrews, Cardiff University, UK

"... we highly recommend this volume to everyone interested in the public sector and its employment relations, in particular to all scholars, practitioners and politicians who like to think beyond 'national boxes' and are interested in evidence-based substantiation of their decisions on the public sector." - Werner Schmidt and Andrea Mu ller, Research Institute for Work, Technology and Culture, Tubingen, Transfer: The European Review of Labour and Research

"This is a terrific book. Anyone interested in developments in labor relations or political economy in the public sector in Europe and elsewhere will want to read it." - Harry C. Katz, Jack Sheinkman Professor of Collective Bargaining, Director, Scheinman Institute, ILR School, Cornell University
