Hurd’s chapter on the international labour organization (ILO)

Q. Hurd’s chapter on the international labour organization (ILO) provides a rather positive account of its role and procedures as compared to other IOs he examines.  DiGiacomo provides a much more critical account of the ILO, suggesting it has potential to address work-related challenges of economic globalization, but remains outdated and largely ineffective.  What do you think?  Would you conclude that the ILO is the workers’ champion or a 90-pound weakling?
