Trosolwyg
Jonathan Preminger is senior lecturer in HRM, director of the Employment Research Unit at Cardiff Business School, and author of Labor in Israel: Beyond Nationalism and Neoliberalism (2018, ILR Press). His PhD investigated industrial relations and organised labour within the broad social and political context, and he continues to publish on the changing nature of industrial relations systems, state-union relations, union revitalisation, democracy and citizenship within the frameworks of collective labour relations, and trade unionism more generally. His most recent research investigates employee ownership, where he continues to pursue key issues such as democracy, participation, power, control and citizenship in the workplace.

Meysydd goruchwyliaeth
PhD supervision research interests
I am interested in supervising PhD students in the following areas:
- Alternative organisational forms, emphasising workplace democracy and collective ownership, including cooperatives, employee-owned firms, and social enterprises. Possible research topics include (but are not limited to) representation, participation and organisational democracy, and the impact of organisational structures on labour processes and “decent work”.
- Industrial relations, including labour organisations, representation and participation, economic democracy, new IR actors, and union revitalisation; or more broadly changes to IR systems and institutions or the political economic context.
- Employment, labour studies and industrial relations in the MENA region, including (but not limited to) comparative studies.
