France is perhaps the only country in the Western world which because of the predominance of class-struggle unionism has not developed a system of mutually binding collective bargaining. The Auroux Laws enacted under the presidency of Francois Mitterrand were chiefly designed to encourage workplace participation and contractual partnership between unions and management. This article examines their origins, rationale and short-term results to illustrate the dependency of legally-induced collective bargaining on the broader economic and political environment. Under depressive labour market and political conditions the reforms barely altered existing relationships. Their potentially integrative effects were vitiated by union weakness, radical opposition and the absence of material incentives for cooperation. While the reforms helped shift the focus of labour relations from the industry to the firm, it was a process dominated by management that left little room for collective participation or free and consensual bargaining.

Under conditions where the aim of globalization of services and integration into international structures, protection of property rights and trade right is playing an important role in national and international legislation. Intellectual Property itself includes two categories of rights: The Copyright and Industrial Property. Through this paper, we are going to present the Industrial Property. Initially, the focus will be the development of Industrial Property right to see the origin and grounds of defense of this right back to the earliest times. To proceed further with provisions of Albanian legislation to accomplish the protection of industrial property rights, in order to bring the standards set by European Union countries. Although Albania has a complete legal protection of Industrial Property right, the problem consists in the practical implementation of this legal framework. Issues of applicability of this legal framework in practice are going to be the core of this paper, pointing the shortcomings and the legal vacuums. The international agreements aimed at establishing international standards for the defense of industrial property will also be the focus of this working paper especially those who have been ratified by our country. Also through this paper, we are going to do a description of the objects of Industrial Property, of course mentioning the efficiency of Trademarks and Patents in the national and international economy.

Environmental protection is a global concern but action taken varies widely. The absence of sustainable practices in labour and industrial policies in Nigeria has contributed significantly to environmental degradation. This is due to the non-internalisation of environmental concerns and non-adherence to international environmental laws and obligations, which has led to the absence of environmental protection standards as a factor in investment decisions. Studies have shown that minimising environmental impact is essential for the planet and the long-term success and reputation of a business. Therefore, in this article it is argued that a comprehensive set of guidelines and procedures to govern operations in areas such as waste management pollution, energy use, and emissions reduction, as well as employee training and engagement in sustainable practices, will minimise environmental footprints and positively impact on communities. Understanding that commitment to international obligations and national policies reflects the belief that business has a crucial role in preserving the environment for future generations, a regular assessment of progress towards meeting these obligations and seeking opportunities for continuous improvement in national laws are recommended. Employing a legal analysis and literature review methodology, the article will outline and review environmental and industrial policies in Nigeria to see what review or amendment options are available in line with the commitments and obligations under international law, while also making inferences from select countries.
