Abstract
Moral outrage often follows news stories exposing egregious abuse of workers, but it does not result in the actions needed to address it. Sadly, it feels like a perpetual game of whack-a-mole. I will argue, giving three examples from my own professional experience, that we need a new governance system regulating the world of work. The International Labour Organization (ILO) is the right institution, but often has the wrong actors around the negotiating table who can fix the endemic labour abuse that characterises our global economic system today.
期刊介绍：
Global Social Policy is a fully peer-reviewed journal that advances the understanding of the impact of globalisation processes upon social policy and social development on the one hand, and the impact of social policy upon globalisation processes on the other hand. The journal analyses the contributions of a range of national and international actors, both governmental and non-governmental, to global social policy and social development discourse and practice. Global Social Policy publishes scholarly policy-oriented articles and reports that focus on aspects of social policy and social and human development as broadly defined in the context of globalisation be it in contemporary or historical contexts.
