Politicising Commodification: A Response to Ban, Béthoux, Rhodes, and Martínez Lucio
Commodifying Public Utilities: EU's New Governance Prescriptions for Rail and Water
In the mid‐2000s, the Single Market Program and European Monetary Union lost momentum, as public services advocates increasingly succeeded in tempering attempts to liberalize public utilities through legislative amendments and Court of Justice rulings. After the 2008 crisis, however, the EU's shift to a new economic governance (NEG) regime provided EU executives with a new tool to advance their objectives. Unlike EU directives, country‐specific N…
Politicising Commodification: European Governance and Labour Politics from the Financial Crisis to the Covid Emergency
This book examines the new economic governance (NEG) regime that the EU adopted after 2008.

NEG led to a much more vertical mode of EU integration, and its commodification agenda unleas…
Why Do some Labour Alliances Succeed in Politicizing Europe across Borders? A Comparison of the Right2Water and Fair Transport European Citizens' Initiatives

Our comparison reveals that actor‐centred factors matter – namely, unions' ability to create broad coalitions. Successful transnational la…
Introduction: Politicizing the transnational
Labor movements have always found it difficult to reveal and transform the social relations that constitute markets. The growing transnational movements of goods, capital, and services in themselves have therefore not triggered closer trade union cooperation across borders. Transnational collective action also requires conscious choices and a mutual understanding that solidarity across borders is warranted. For this reason, this special issue of …
