- W2523005280 abstract "In the era of globalization and regional economic treaties trade anions have not involved in a significant debate about what can be done to react. Most trade unions still follow their own historical approach and strategies. If employers can operate freely across national borders through multi-national companies, the trade unions cannot just function within their own national jurisdictions. A new collective interest would be the starting point for a transnational role of trade unions. Globalization and regionalism have altered the balance of power between capital and labor to the disadvantage of labor. This article explores whether the trade union movements within SADC are actively playing a role in combating the effects of regional globalization on labor. Transnational Labor Relations We live in an age of transnationalism, where transnational legal norms move around the globe. To some extent these legal norms have been codified by international treaties, whether of a binding or nonbinding nature. Shaffer (2012) maintains that the source of these transnational legal norms may be an international treaty, international soft law, privately created codes or standards, a foreign legal model that is promoted by a transnational actor, or a combination of them. Globalization and the increasing movement of capital and labor across international borders, with the exception of migrant workers who are facing major obstacles by immigration laws, are creating a situation where laws in general and labor laws in particular are obtaining an international character. Internationally the problem of movement of labor is the asymmetric structure between capital and labor in regard to the freedom of movement. In view of increasing globalization, the Conventions of the International Labor Organization (hereafter the ILO) have assumed greater prominence in recent years. Internationalization and globalization have had a growing impact in many areas especially on legal and economic relations (Smit, 2010). There has been a rapid growth in the role of international agreements and supranational authority over the past 40 years that regulate economic, social, communications, environmental and human rights behavior (Simmons, 1998). original concept of transnational relations encompasses almost everything in world politics, except inter-state relations. This has led to a situation where many sovereign nation-states were forced to choose a side in establishing their political, economic, social, and cultural relations and operations, which, in itself, again led to regionalism. Transnationalism and all its different facets have a major influence on all the different role players in Transnational Companies (TNC's) and especially the employment relationship. Dickmann, Miiller-Camen & Kelliher (2008) reported that not only does a TNC need to integrate various human resource principles and policies to create cohesion and they support the view held by Gennard (2008) that a TNC will have to implement transnational human resource management (THRM) practices. It becomes problematic where employment or labor decisions that are taken in one area of the world have an effect on employment relations somewhere else in the world. It is apparent that transnational relationships of actors have become so intertwined that it is almost impossible to understand the strategies of actors within one country without referring to the events and strategies of actors in other countries (Lillie & Greer, 2007). It would seem as if transnational capital plays national environments against each other but at the same time attempts to create a genuinely global business environment (Lillie & Lucio, 2012). Greer and Hauptmeier (2008) stated that the globalization of markets and firms has had a profound impact on labor relations and they defined labor transnationalism as: The spatial extension of trade unionism through the intensification of co-operation between trade unionists across countries using transnational tools and structures. …" @default.
