Project description
 

This research aims to map the transplantation of the French conseil de prud’hommes across Europe and to compare its evolution in five countries in detail. This should enable us to gain insight into the development of specialised labour courts, but will also contribute to a much-needed clearer understanding of the conditions for a successful transplantation of legal rules or institutions.
