Winner of two prestigious awards in its First Edition (the 2006 Outstanding Academic Title Award from "CHOICE" Magazine, and the 2007 Academy of Management's George R Terry Book Award) the Second Edition provides an update on worldwide anti-discrimination legislation, with a critical examination of not only the content but also the enforcement of those laws. It describes changes in Affirmative/Positive Action public policies, and using some recent court cases examine newer arguments for and against those policies. It places more emphasis on the section describing Migration of Employers because of the growing importance of outsourcing and the public debate about 'sending jobs overseas'. It adds more current research on the barriers and benefits to implementing level I of the inclusive workplace model. It adds more on fair international practices and more public awareness and pressure to implement such practices.
