AIAS

AIAS is a young interdisciplinary institute, established in 1998, aiming to become the leading expert centre in
the Netherlands for research on industrial relations, organisation of work, wage formation and labour market
inequalities.

As a network organisation, AIAS brings together high-level expertise at the University of Amsterdam from five
disciplines:

Law

Economics

Sociology

Psychology

Health and safety studies

AIAS provides both teaching and research. On the teaching side it offers a Masters in Advanced Labour
Studies/Human Resources and special courses in co-operation with other organizations such as the National
Trade Union Museum and the Netherlands Institute of International Relations 'Clingendael'. The teaching is in
Dutch but AIAS is currently developing a MPhil in Organisation and Management Studies and a European
Scientific Master programme in Labour Studies in co-operation with sister institutes from other countries.

AIAS has an extensive research program (2000-2004) building on the research performed by its member
scholars. Current research themes effectively include:

•   The impact of the Euro on wage formation, social policy and industrial relations

•   Transitional labour markets and the flexibility and security trade-off in social and labour market

regulation

The prospects and policies of 'overcoming marginalisation' in employment

The cycles of policy learning and mimicking in labour market reforms in Europe

Female agency and collective bargaining outcomes

The projects of the LoWER network.
