As we enter a new millennium, the world of work is changing.
Improved technology enables workers to be more dispersed physically.
The globalization of the economy presents new challenges and opportunities. Increased contingency in employment may by accompanied by a decline in the influence of internal labor markets and an increased reliance by employees on mobility from employer to employer. The workplace is also becoming more diversified racially and ethnically. This program will address the implications of these and related developments for unions, management and labor relations in general. This Lecture Series is funded by the Kenneth M. Piper Endowment, established by a gift from Mrs. Kenneth M. Piper in memory of her husband.
