The Impact

The article presents the results of a study of the impact of pension reform in Russia on economic growth and quality of life in a digital economy, taking into account the experience of raising the retirement age in Europe. The aim of the study was to identify and analyze the impact of raising the retirement age on economic growth in the context of the development of digitalization in Russia and a comparative analysis with European countries. Results: the studies conducted allowed us to develop a system of indicators characterizing the impact of raising the retirement age on economic growth and the quality of life of the population in the context of digitalization. The authors found that raising the retirement age leads to a change in labor relations in Russia and Europe. The application of the proposed indicators can be used in the formation of a balanced state socio-economic policy in the field of institutional changes in the field of labor relations and raising the retirement age. The study was carried out under a grant from the RFBR № 19-010-00362 А.

<p><span>As reformas recentes na legislação trabalhista de Brasil e França abriram uma porta para a comparação. A rationale que as presidiu tem inspiração comum: a flexibilização das formas de uso do trabalho em países nos quais a legislação era reputada muito rígida, dificultando o ajuste das empresas às mudanças constantes na competitividade mundial. Embora Brasil e França ocupem lugares muito distintos na divisão internacional do trabalho, e sofram pressões competitivas também distintas, os motivos alegados pelos reformadores dos dois lados são espantosamente semelhantes. Modernização das relações de trabalho, geração de empregos (e combate ao desemprego), crescimento econômico, melhoria da renda dos trabalhadores e das condições de trabalho. Mas a promessa de segurança socioeconômica vem acompanhada de formas de regulação que geram, na verdade, insegurança no emprego, na renda e nos direitos trabalhistas. O estudo procura avaliar algumas dimensões dessa insegurança, comparando os dois países em torno da noção de “precariedade”.</span></p><p> </p><div><p class="trans-title"><strong>LABOR REFORMS AND THEIR MARKETS: a comparison Brazil-France</strong></p><p>Recent reforms in labor legislation in Brazil and France have opened a door for comparison.

Labor Management

The economic and social situation at the beginning of the 21st century is bringing new challenges also to labor - management relations all over the world. During the transition period, Slovenia was facing hard times in striving to build completely new market-oriented economic society. Because of the significance of labor-management relations to the new economy and political system, labor-related matters received much attention from the Slovenian economic development policy. Within socialist economic system unemployment actually did not exist, as the system was very protective. Labor relations were administratively regulated and all shortcomings broke out on the eve before the socialism collapsed. Transformation depression was accompanied with decline in economic activity in general and inflation, which both had negative impact on standard of living and employment. The registered unemployment rate was rising up to 14.4 % in 1993. The most critical groups were those having no vocational education, older than 40 and those already being unemployed. The main reasons for employment stagnation and the persistent high registered unemployment rate could be found in economys restructure initiated by a transition into market economy (bankruptcies) and the loss of Yugoslav markets (orientation on a more demanding European markets). Many enterprises faced inevitable failure; many workers were dismissed or got a status of being redundant. The problem was moderated with new retirement legislation, which enabled the possibility of early retirement, which consequently lowered the share of elder people employed and contributed to very modest share of part-time employed people. In Slovenia labor costs (taxes and social contributions paid by employees and employers) are the highest in the new EU member states with the exception of Cyprus. If Slovenia wants to boost employment and economic growth, it will have to implement the new labor-relations law and create a more flexible labor market. Considering that competitive advantage and economic growth are often achieved by reducing labor costs (and lower social security of employees) the regulation of labor relations needs very subtle actions. In the paper, we present the development of labor relations in Slovenia through three periods: planned economy, transition and post-transition period, high-lightening the recent trends, the key labor market development problems, as well as bringing forward the key orientations and policies alleviating critical elements on this field.

The article aims to solve the problems of the development and economic growth of enterprises, organizations, regions, countries through the institutional transformation of social and labor relations during the periods of technological re-equipment of industries and industrial complexes. In theory and methodology, the article is based on Karl Marx’s well-known law of the correspondence of relations of production to the level and nature of the development of productive forces. It draws attention to the fact that, when technological changes (which are nothing more than the development of productive forces in the social and labor sphere) are introduced, employees’ resistance to changes arises. The reason for the resistance lies in the fact that the social and labor (production, according to Marx) relations that had developed by the time the changes were introduced collide with the technologies being introduced (productive forces). In order to reduce the potential of employees’ resistance to changes, the article proposes the following: when managing the implementation of changes, a recommendation is to exert managerial influence on the established institutions of social and labor relations, too. The transformation of the latter, which aims at resolving the arising objectively determined contradictions, will, as follows from the logic of Hegel, contribute to the technological development of enterprises, which, according to Joseph Schumpeter’s concept, will also ensure economic growth. Social and labor relations are influenced through the reproduction of the workforce, expressed in employees’ better qualifications, which, according to the theoretical provisions of Professor Aleksandr Bychkov, ensures the growth of human capital. Based on the provisions of the classical school of political economy, the concept of development of Schumpeter, the logic of Hegel, and the theoretical provisions of Bychkov, the article proposes a methodological scheme for the institutional transformation of social and labor relations. The scheme aims at resolving objectively determined contradictions between productive forces and social and labor relations, which will ensure technological development and economic growth.

The Relationship

The article is devoted to the study of the content of the relationship between the labor force reproduction with such factors of labor activity as informal employment and labor precariatization. These factors impede the enrichment of the informal employer’s work content, the improvement of their qualifications, and, consequently, the qualitative reproduction of the labor force. On a society scale, they are a brake on economic growth and economic development, considered in the context of the interaction of productive forces and social and labor relations. The article reflects the results of the study and the quantitative assessment of informal employment in the Russian Federation, as one of the sources of the formation of the precariat, which are presented in statistics according to the OKVED-2 classification. Based on the results of the study, a system of measures aimed at reducing the potential of informal employment and precariatisation of labor was proposed in order to create more favorable conditions for the reproduction of the labor force, economic growth and development.

Abstract This article examines the relations between the International Confederation of Free Trade Unions (ICFTU) and its local allies in Brazil during the 1950s and early 1960s. Devised as a tool for uniting non-Communist trade unions worldwide, the ICFTU saw its influence limited by US labor policies toward Latin America and the conditions of labor politics in Brazil, contrary to what happened in Western Europe. The developments on both domestic and international fronts of organized labor had important implications for the political economy of growth and inequality, as the confrontational pattern of labor relations undermined the development of a social compact that could promote economic growth and social reform in postwar Brazil.
