In 2011, in a volume of essays on Regulating for Decent Work , Sangheon Lee and Deirdre McCann, as editors, identified the limitations of a deregulatory agenda in terms of the outcomes for labour markets. Yet, if regulation is desirable, and there seems to a growing consensus that this is the case (see Ralf Rogowski, Reflexive Labour Law in the World Society (Cheltenham: Edward Elgar, 2013)), the question remains as to how such interventions might be crafted in order to achieve optimal results. This more complex and challenging problem is the focus of their second volume, co-edited with other international and academic experts. Like the first edited collection, this is an interdisciplinary collaboration (from presenters at an event organised under the auspices of the International Labour Organisation), which draws together writers from disciplines as diverse as development, economics, employment law, industrial relations and policy studies. What is exciting about this book is that it offers over-arching theoretical analysis (to be found primarily in Parts I and II) indicating useful directions for research and policy experimentation, while grounding these assumptions in the compelling empirical evidence offered in Part III (on the effects of minimum wages) and Parts IV and V (on new approaches to enforcement indeterminacy).
