"This edited volume is a much-needed contribution from leading scholars that addresses key contradictions of free movement of labour within the European single market from the perspective of a critical political economy of regulation. In so doing, it breaks new ground and repositions previously disparate disciplinary preoccupations. As such, it will be a key reference for those interested in industrial relations, labour law and regulation theory, as well as for policy-makers and practitioners at national and European level concerned with the increasingly contentious labour market implications of the cross-border movement of migrant workers." –Charles Woolfson, Linköping University, Sweden
"Posted workers are the critical test of free movement of workers, and thereby of the whole EU project. This book provides the ultimate analysis of a phenomenon that is still not clearly understood, and does not refrain from providing sharp policy recommendations." –Guglielmo Meardi, University of Warwick, UK
