OverviewThe fully revised and updated second edition of this core textbook builds on the previous edition’s success to bring an even sharper exploration of HRM in a real-world global context. With a critical approach that is woven into the chapters and encourages students to question assumptions in HRM, there is a consistent focus on the impact of globalization, the ways in which theory has addressed the implications of a globalized workforce, and the way HRM works in multinational corporations. Boasting a truly global orientation, this textbook draws on the expert knowledge of chapter authors from around the world, combining international case studies with a strong offering of pedagogical features. While adopting a rigorous academic approach, the book is also designed to engage students and elicit independent thought. This is an ideal core textbook for undergraduate and postgraduate students studying on general business and management degrees, specialist HRM degrees, and international business degrees. In addition, this an important supplementary text for International HRM modules and HRM modules on MBA programmes.

The authors take a non-western-centric approach and encourage students to question underlying assumptions about management. * Adrian Wilkinson, Griffith University, Australia * In the last few decades an increasing number of books on international HRM have been published. Among these publications this book stands out through the way in which it explores dominant concepts from the HRM literature, linking them with other literature, like on institutional theory, industrial relations and employee participation. The critical approach makes it stand out, especially when compared with more mainstream thinking on Strategic HRM. Global developments are looked at without the typical Euro-US angle - providing fresh ideas from other regions of the world like Australia. There are also many excellent cases suitable for various levels of teaching international HRM and employment relations. * Ulke Veersma, University of Greenwich, UK * This book provides a superb introduction to HRM in the 21st century, and in a global context. The topics are located in the present era; they update methodologies and offer original and actionable ways forward for a subject that is in danger of being hijacked by recycled insights. * Raza Mir, William Paterson University, USA * Author InformationJawad Syed is Dean and Professor of Organisational Behaviour at Suleman Dawood School of Business, Lahore University of Management Sciences, Pakistan.
