Recenzii
This work is a much-needed study in a little-researched field of international, labor and human rights law . It is a far-reaching and in-depth investigation, with a detailed reflective analysis . I encourage its reading and discussion, with the understanding that this will enrich the debate and stimulate the development of new works on the subject.
