New Book: Technical-Legal Study of C.188 on Work in Fishing Convention (2007) of the International Labour Organization: Are decent working conditions


This work systematically and critically analyses the Convention No. 188 on work in fishing adopted at the ILO in 2007. This is a work that is approaching the subject using the method of comparison, that is, confronting the resulting text of the ILO with other international instruments before-direct or indirect application to fishermen-and also adopted by this International agency, in order to try to answer the main question that the title of this same monographic work refers, which is nothing other than to determine if really through C. 188 are guaranteed decent working conditions for the collective of World-wide fishermen.
