EATUC PROGRESS REVIEW2007 – 2015

Economic globalization exacerbates the fragmentation of labour in many ways, but at the same
time it generates commonalities in the experience and aspiration of workers not only regionally
but worldwide. This approach gives the phenomenon of what political scientists’ call labour
solidarity the new urgency; this gives us the reasonable belief that suggesting labour unions are
out of date is inaccurate.
The ongoing regional integration and globalization did not open up new issues, but rather
transformed an old problem into a broadened arena related to the issues arising from
comparative labour law and its application to legal regimes. One of the biggest and the most
problematic questions are the legal protection of workers who move. While the modern global
world provides labour force with many opportunities to move around, it provides little support
and protection for these workers.
