Abstract
Around the globe, the labor world has undergone profound transformations that have given rise to much research and broad debate. A wide gamut of topics have been explored in an effort to understand the scale of impact these changes have had. One question that has merited attention is how this whole process affects labor, workers, and their organizational forms, as well as regulatory models in the realm of labor. Taking three studies as its point of departure, the present article analyzes current diagnoses and prognostics regarding these questions and examines the role that workers and unions might play in this new picture.
