Introduction: in this article the authors examine the complex issues related to certain contours of the future of labor law in the conditions of change. An analysis of contemporary Western and Russian literature on the stated topic is given. Methods: comparative legal, historical, system methods, as well as the modeling method and the formal-logical method. Analysis: particular attention is paid to the numerical growth of atypical labor relations, which are inherent in the postindustrial society. Their main characteristics associated with a deviation from the three classical cha- racteristics (personal, organizational and property), as well as from the model of the traditional «working» contract, are proposed. It stressed the importance of information, technological and social aspects of the new organization of work, discussed the problem of «living wage» and the prospects of its solution. Results: the authors proposed three options for further development of labor law, the most likely one was identified. According to the authors, this option is associated with a reduction in the scope of the mandatory legal regulation of labor relations and the total number of specialized regulatory legal acts, with an increase in the role of judicial law. Accordingly, the role of horizontal (individual-contractual and social-partner) regulation of labor relations increases. The article proposes the author’s periodization of the stages of labor organization. As the conclusions the basic characteristics inherent in labor law of the future are offered: 1) strengthening of flexibility in regulation of labor relations, expansion of the sphere of normative differentiation and contractual regulation; 2) the transformation of labor law towards a comprehensive legal education «human rights in the process of wor- king life», 3) the growing role of international labor law in connection with the process of globalization.

In the late 1970s, the future of organized labor in the fields of California had never looked brighter. A decade of boycotts, strikes, and marches had generated public and political pressure that culminated in the California Agricultural Labor Relations Act—“the best labor law in the country,” the United Farm Workers’ chief negotiator triumphantly proclaimed in June 1975. Soon thereafter, the Teamsters agreed to withdraw and cede organizing in the fields to Cesar Chávez's union, ending a costly and violent rivalry.
