Each year, the New York University Annual Conference on Labor calls on
outstanding scholars and practitioners in the field to come together to survey

the 2007 Conference, the 60th in this venerable and highly influential series,

Besides papers by panelists at the Conference, ten other leading practitioners

of inestimable value to practitioners, government officials, academics and
others interested in developments in U.S. employment and labor relations law
and practice.
