• Is written by a team of experts from the UK and from international institutions, bringing a number of diverse perspectives to HRM
• Draws out the importance of state/corporate governance of the workplace and the politics of workplace relations
• Integrates students’ prior understanding of the key operational aspects of HRM with the wider institutional and social contexts in which they occur
• Expands students’ knowledge of HR-related theory with wider social and business theory, enabling them to apply critical approaches to HR problems
