Invitation

The European Trade Union Institute for Research, Education and Health and Safety (ETUI-REHS) is pleased to announce the open day for its newly reorganised and modernised documentation centre which takes place on 5th December 2007 between 10am and 6pm.

On this occasion Marc Sapir, Managing Director of the ETUI-REHS and
John Monks, General Secretary of the ETUC

have the pleasure of inviting you to a cocktail celebrating the official inauguration of the new ETUI-REHS documentation centre from 6:30pm - 8pm.

To recognize serious study in labor and work history among undergraduate students, the New York Labor History Association will award the Barbara Wertheimer Prize of $100.00 for the best research paper written during the2007-2008 academic year. The prize winning entry will, with permission, be posted on the NYLHA website. Please encourage your best undergraduate students to submit their work.

This call invites interested researchers all over the world to join in a project to assemble, discuss and analyze historical data on labour conflicts. We feel that, to really understand the present developments in strike activity, a long-term view is needed. To construct this view, and to compare long-term trends by country and by economic sector, we need to assemble and standardize data. Thanks to the internet and to specialized software for virtual collaboration such an enterprise is feasible.
