What we research

Our research reflects upon and shapes the direction of the emerging and听contested field of Transnational Labour Law.听 Over the years, our research has听introduced听key considerations into current debates on the direction of transnational labour law as a field and offered critical engagement with the following themes:听

  1. The relationship between labour law and development, both in the global South and in the global North
  2. Hegemonic transplantation of labour regulatory frameworks in labour law, from the global North to the global South
  3. The transnational regulation of decent work for domestic workers, including the intersection of multiple grounds of discrimination (race, gender, nationality) and regulatory innovation in the global South
  4. Social regionalism as counter-hegemonic, multilevel governance of the relationship of the social in the economic, and听engaging international solidarity
  5. Labour market informality in its relationship to legal pluralism, and regulatory transformation
  6. Labour migration, the 鈥楽outh of听the North鈥�, and the decent work complement to reasonable labour market access
  7. Emancipation in the idea of labour law, including labour law as development.

In addition to the research undertaken by the Labour Law and Development Research Network (LLDRN),听the LLDRL also supports听graduate and postdoctoral fellows听interested in completing research on the themes listed above.听Many of our fellows visit the LLDRL through the O'Brien Fellowship program of the 污污草莓视频 Centre for Human Rights and Legal Pluralism. Graduate fellows have benefitted from other sources of postdoctoral support, including under the Canada Research Chair in Transnational Labour Law and Development (2016-2017), a SSCHR Banting Fellowship (2011-2013), as well as CRIMT-LLDRL Postdoctoral Fellowship (2009-2010).
