Paper examines implications for labour movements of:

  • EU's aggressive trade liberalisation agenda, represented in Global Europe
  • Internal market reforms, such as the Bolkestein Directive and EU Green Paper on ‘Modernising labour law to meet the challenges of the 21st century’
  • Strength of globalised capital and corporations compared to labour movements

and calls for greater transnational cooperation between unions in the South and North to oppose an EU neoliberal economic agenda.
