Abstract

This book examines the phenomenon of outsourcing and labor reforms in Latin America, focusing on the changes in labor relations and the impact of digital platforms. It aims to explore the complexities of outsourcing in the context of neoliberal capitalism and flexible work arrangements, particularly in Argentina and Brazil. The book discusses the precarious nature of outsourced work and the role of public institutions in labor regulation. Contributions from multiple authors analyze different aspects, including the influence of the pandemic on labor practices and the evolution of labor laws. Intended for scholars and policymakers, the book provides a comprehensive view of labor dynamics in the region.

Abstract

Outsourcing Economics has a double meaning. First, it is a book about the economics of outsourcing. Second, it examines the way that economists have understood globalization as a pure market phenomenon, and as a result have 'outsourced' the explanation of world economic forces to other disciplines. Markets are embedded in a set of institutions - labor, government, corporate, civil society, and household - that mold the power asymmetries that influence the distribution of the gains from globalization. In this book, William Milberg and Deborah Winkler propose an institutional theory of trade and development starting with the growth of global value chains - international networks of production that have restructured the global economy and its governance over the past twenty-five years. They find that offshoring leads to greater economic insecurity in industrialized countries that lack institutions supporting workers. They also find that offshoring allows firms to reduce domestic investment and focus on finance and short-run stock movements.

Abstract

Offshoring—the transfer of an industrial activity abroad—has become a fact of life for business. But it is also perceived as a threat by a large segment of the general public. And much of the public concern centers on employment, especially the potential loss of domestic jobs. This groundbreaking report provides new insights into the phenomenon of offshoring. First, the report defines offshoring in detail, allowing readers to see the many ways that industrial activity—both in manufacturing and in services—can be transferred abroad. The report then describes the wide-ranging effects that offshoring can have on domestic employment—the positive, as well as the negative. Finally, this ground-breaking report outlines the public policy implications of offshoring. It suggests ways to limit the downside of offshoring while helping to build trust between the various stakeholders working to address this issue.

Abstract

Economic globalization is transforming practically every service sector. The legal industry that has long remained insulated too has not remained untouched by the effects of globalization. The outsourcing of legal services in the past one decade has transformed the legal landscape. Legal outsourcing to India is becoming increasingly popular among U.S. and European law firms and corporations. This book broadly seeks to discuss three main topics surrounding legal process outsourcing (LPO): its emerging trends, the legal challenges it raises and the hitherto unrecognized potential it holds.00Firstly, this book clarifies concepts of LPO and its operating models practiced by U.S. and U.K. law firms and corporations. Secondly, the outsourcing of legal services creates significant challenges for ethics rules including conflict of interests, attorney-client privilege, supervision and fee sharing. Thirdly, this research explores the hidden potential of LPO to improve access to justice. This book develops an altogether new proposal where Indian LPO professionals could help alleviate the access to justice problem among indigent and low-income populations of the United States.

Abstract

Les délocalisations, c'est-à-dire le transfert d'activités industrielles à l'étranger, font désormais partie de la vie des entreprises. Toutefois, une grande partie du public les perçoit comme une menace. Les inquiétudes sont concentrées sur l'emploi, notamment sur les pertes potentielles d'emplois sur le marché intérieur. Ce rapport jette un nouveau regard sur le phénomène des délocalisations. Tout d'abord, il le définit de manière détaillée et montre ainsi quelles sont les multiples façons dont une activité industrielle – à la fois dans l'industrie manufacturière et dans les services – peut être transférée à l'étranger. Le rapport décrit les divers effets que les délocalisations ont sur l'emploi, qu’ils soient positifs ou négatifs. Enfin, ce rapport novateur esquisse les conséquences que les délocalisations pourraient avoir sur la politique publique. Il propose des solutions pour en limiter les effets négatifs tout en contribuant à instaurer la confiance entre les divers partenaires sociaux qui travaillent sur cette question.

Abstract

In this book, Radlo increases understanding of offshoring, outsourcing and international production fragmentation, and explains the impact of this phenomenon on the economies and enterprises. Key features include a comprehensive theoretical explanation of offshoring and outsourcing at both macroeconomic and microeconomic level, as well as an explanation of practical consequences of the mentioned phenomenon for the development of the global economy, national economies, concrete industries and enterprises. Unlike other publications, which are often characterized by narrow management or a macroeconomic approach to the analysis of offshoring and outsourcing, Radlo's text offers real insight into the global impact of production fragmentation.
