This study is the most comprehensive analysis of the treatment of social claims in insolvency to date, and will make an important contribution to a timely and important public policy debate. The text can be used to challenge the status quo, to compare, and contrast one system to another in order to frame an argument on why wages and pensions should be treated differently in your country.

This book is divided into parts that are designed to provide the most detailed account of world insolvency systems and how they treat wages and benefits of employees.

When one is faced with as catchy a title as this, one may reasonably pose the question of whether this book will be a worthwhile read. The answer to that is quite simply: ABSOLUTELY.
