Publications
European trade union Yearbook 2003/2004
Since 1995 the ETUI has published the European Trade Union Yearbook. Contributors to this volume analyse and comment on some of the most important socio-political developments of the last eighteen months with a view to increasing awareness of, and thereby helping to promote, the social dimension of the European policy processes. The most important political changes at the European level and on the national scenes during the last twenty months form the frame of reference for the contributions.
