| description |
The Cambodian labor law of 1997 provides
a detailed framework for the regulation of most private
sector employment. It provides a framework for industrial
relations, including the inclusion of the right for workers
to form and be members of unions; the elaboration of the
right to bargain collectively; procedures to protect the
right to strike; and the establishment of a formal system
for the resolution of labor disputes. The case study
presented looking at labor reforms in Cambodia highlights
innovative ways in which the normative potential of law can
be harnessed without relying on formal enforcement
mechanisms. Further, it argues that providing support for
collective contests and whatever institutional spaces allow
such contests to be played out most equitably in a given
political moment should be at the forefront of our thinking
as law and development practitioners. |
