Relational and associational justice in work
This Article explores the idea that the moral standards of relational or interpersonal justice can be used to lay the foundations for a theory of justice in work, rather than relying on principles of justice developed for society as a whole in philosophical theories of distributive justice. It is argued that a rich and distinctive scheme of interpersonal justice can be developed by using a method of internal critique and by focusing on two distin…
Fat Cats, Production Networks, and the Right to Fair Pay
Should there be a legal right to fair pay so that anyone might challenge the relative fairness of their pay? International human rights law does not clearly support such a right, partly due to the uncertain meaning of fairness in pay. The article challenges this uncertainty, explaining the marginal relevance of theories of distributive justice. Standards of fairness should be discovered instead in principles of interpersonal justice, particularly…
Philosophical Foundations of Labour Law
The Contract of Employment
The contract of employment is the central legal institution of modern English employment law. It provides the foundation upon which most statutory employment rights are constructed; it provides a conduit for the implementation of norms negotiated in collective bargaining; and it continues to provide a contractual structure for the terms and conditions of employment for a significant proportion of the working population. The Contract of Employment…

Harmonisation by Example: European Laws against Unfair Commercial Practices
This examination of the implementation of the European Union's Directive on Unfair Commercial Practices in the United Kingdom by the Consumer Protection from Unfair Trading Regulations 2008 assesses the likely impact on the national law governing the marketing practices of rogue traders, including its ambition to simplify and extend legal protection, and the likely success of the Directive in achieving the harmonisation of the laws and practices …

Flexibility and stability of expectations in the contract of employment
The law stabilizes transactional relations by protecting the implicit expectations of the parties to contracts by various techniques including the imposition of mandatory and supplementary rules. The established pattern in the contract of employment of the protection of expectations of co-operation from the employee and fair treatment by the employer has come under strain as a consequence of the employer's increasing expectations of functional fl…

Discrimination, Equality and Social Inclusion
Although laws against discrimination have conventionally been justified and articulated according to various conceptions of equality, tensions between different notions of equality undermine the coherence of these explanations. The aim of social inclusion is proposed as part of an alternative justification for discrimination laws. As well as exploring the meaning and implications of the policy of social inclusion for discrimination laws, the exte…

Contre l'abstentionnisme en droit du travail
The general policy of British labour law during this century has been to abstain from legal intervention in order to permit collective bargaining to flourish. This policy rests upon an ideology called industrial pluralism which advocates collective bargaining as the means of introducing democracy, the Rule of Law, and fairness into the workplace. The author argues that collective bargaining fails to achieve the ideals of industrial pluralism beca…

A society may accept the moral principle that promises ought to be kept, but out of respect for the value of privacy object to the application of legal sanctions for breach of every promise. The principle of privacy delineates a realm of conduct which the state cannot justifiably regulate. This principle plays a central role in liberal political theory, since it colours many liberals' conceptions o…
