“…Do businesses, professional associations, and labor unions operating across borders have the same connection to international norms and identities as human rights groups, environmentalists or peace activists? The co-occurrence of the rediscovery of transnational politics with the constructivist turn has led many IR scholars to focus on heavily normative activist networks and to ignore networks with deeper material interests -like international labor networks (Blyton et al 2000).…”

“…Vance & Paik [27] argued that the impact of globalisation on HRM is becoming a critical factor in the success of a business. Albeit, rigorous empirical evidence about the effect of globalisation on HR practices is hard to discern [15]. Bawa and Ali point out that firms must be focused on the development and redeployment of their human resources in order to be competitive in the era of globalisation [28].…”

New economic development, which is a result of globalisation and internationalisation, has exerted tremendous pressure on the Indian human resource functions how to evolve itself and add the value to the outcome of the firm. The present paper precisely discusses the globalisation and its impact on the HRM practices of Indian firm in the light of new economic reforms. This study aims to examine the far-reaching changes in the pattern of HR practices owing to ever-increasing globalisation in India. The data were collected through the selfdeveloped questionnaire from 282 senior HR managers of Indian firms. The principal component analysis with varimax rotation generated three components from fifteen HR practices, namely Formal, Motivational and Strategic HR practices. Structural Equation Modelling (SEM) technique has been applied to understand the relationship between globalisation and three bundles of HR practices by using the SPSS Amos 22 software. The study findings suggest that the role of globalisation cannot be neglected. Indeed, The HR policies and practices of Indian firms are strongly influenced by the pace of globalisation of the Indian economy.

Some unions pursued adversarial industrial action as an effective response to airline restructuring, whilst others secured partnerships that shifted restructuring towards quality enhancement and the offering of concessions in exchange for greater influence over management decisions.…”

Considering recent theoretical accounts on the trajectory of French unionism under localised bargaining, this article examines potential consequences for the country's traditionally largest radical union, Confédération Générale du Travail (CGT). Deploying a case study of CGT at PSA Peugeot Citroёn and Renault in the years since the 2008 automotive crisis, the article observes a persistent pattern of militant opposition within company and plant union sections. Company bargaining structure, interunion reformist collaboration and electoral considerations are identified as workplace mechanisms reinforcing CGT actions at this level.
