Industrial Relations and the Coalition's Fightback Package: An Assessment

Author

Listed:
  • John Buchanan

Abstract

Proponents of voluntary exchange in labour markets place great reliance on the contract of employment as an appropriate vehicle for the practical implementation of their exchange model. This paper argues a contrary view and suggests that the contract of employment may not be an appropriate vehicle for the voluntary exchange of labour.
