Capital mobility, labour mobility, union immobility? Trade unions facing multinationals and migration in the EU

The paper addresses the issue of East-West union co-operation in Europe, through empirical evidence from case studies of western multinationals in the Czech Republic, and a review of union activities in the UK towards Polish migrants. The former show the limits of the EWC the institution which so far has been at the vanguard of Europeanisation, but has no collective bargaining role, and does no...

Labour mobility, union immobility? Trade unions & migration in the EU

The paper discusses the interactions between trade unions and migrants in the case of intra-EU migration following the EU enlargement eastwards. Against representations of unions as insiders’ exclusionary organisations, it will point at the rich evidence of cooperation within unions and migrants. In the case of the EU, it is argued, unions have particular incentives to organise migrants rather ...

Spatial correlations of mobility and immobility in a glass-forming Lennard-Jones liquid.

Using extensive molecular dynamics simulations of an equilibrium, glass-forming Lennard-Jones mixture, we characterize in detail the local atomic motions. We show that spatial correlations exist among particles undergoing extremely large ("mobile") or extremely small ("immobile") displacements over a suitably chosen time interval. The immobile particles form the cores of relatively compact clus...
