Abstract

(Available only in Spanish) In the last decade the direction of macroeconomic policies made an extraordinary about-face in Latin America, but labor legislation is virtually unchanged. The central purpose of this work is to show the size of this lag and to indicate that most countries require far-reaching reforms to adapt their labor legislation to the new context of flexibility and competition.
