The Human Rights Program
of the Ramat Gan Law School held its
3rd international conference on the subject
"Labor Rights in the Era of Globalization."
The conference was conducted as a researchers' workshop and took place
at the Sheraton City Towers Hotel, Ramat Gan, Israel, on January 3-4,
2008.
This workshop provided a forum for academics from Canada, the United Kingdom, the United States, and Israel to exchange views and share ideas on the condition of labor rights in the era of globalization from a diverse interdisciplinary perspective. The workshop explored such themes as the shifting philosophical foundations and conceptual framework of international labor rights and their relations to international human rights, transnational labor regulation, and the changes that had occurred in particular practices and the conceptualization of rights, including the right of freedom of association, minimum wage, human trafficking and labor migration. The works presented would be published, after a "double blind" peer review, in Law & Ethics of Human Rights.
Academic Organizers: Dr. Yossi Dahan, Dr. Faina Milman-Sivan
Papers from this workshop will be published in Journal
