"Since the publication of the casebook in the summer of 2006, there have been a significant number of developments that show our labor law in a period of important transition. Prior to being reduced to its two current members, the NLRB decided a number of cases that modify or abandon preexisting doctrines. Appellate courts (federal and state) have rendered important (and often quite controversial) decisions dealing with a wide range of NLRA issues. The Supreme Court has decided more labor cases than usual, on such matters as preemption; chargeable union expenses under agency-shop provisions; and (most recently and importantly) in 14 Penn Plaza LLC v. Pyett the union?s power under a labor contract to require that employees take to arbitration, rather than to court, all statutory non-discrimination claims. Even President Obama has moved quickly to re-shape federal labor law by rescinding several executive orders announced by President Bush and issuing his own, in particular requiring notification by federal contractors of employee rights under the NLRA. All of these matters, and more?including any legislation enacted by the end of June?will be addressed in the forthcoming 2009 Supplement to Cox, Bok, Gorman & Finkin?s Labor Law, utilizing the same techniques used in the casebook: carefully edited full-text versions of the opinions, extended excerpts, and thoughtful notes and questions.

There have been a significant number of recent developments that show our labor law in a period of major transition. All of the matters listed below, and more, will be addressed in the forthcoming 2011 Supplement to Cox, Bok, Gorman & Finkin's Labor Law, 15th edition. The coverage of these up-to-the-moment issues in this 2011 Supplement -- through thoughtful notes and questions -- will assure that the instructor will be aware of the latest developments (through mid-summer 2011) and that student involvement will be at the cutting edge. The important new developments covered in this supplement include: Issuance of NLRB complaint against Boeing Company for allegedly discriminatory decision to open new production line in South Carolina rather than Washington State, and potential remedy of opening new line in Washington. Coercion and discrimination for monitoring of and discipline for employee use of Twitter and other electronic social media to communicate concerning working conditions. Proposed NLRB regulation to simplify and expedite representation-election procedures. Preemption or validity of state law invalidating contracts (including authorization cards) between minors and unions. NLRB invitation to file amicus briefs concerning appropriate bargaining units in non-acute health-care facilities, which has provoked a committee request from the House of Representatives for massive amount of related Board materials. Remedial innovations, including electronic posting of remedial notices.

Throughout his many careers Archibald Cox has been especially concerned with the Constitution and the unalienable rights of fellow citizens. In his latest book Cox reminds us of the meaning of the First Amendment of the Constitution. The framers of the Constitution placed freedom of conscience above other values and then moved on to freedom of expression-a free press, the right to assemble peaceably, and the right to petition government for the redress of grievances. His examination illustrates the balances struck by the Court between freedom of expression and opposing human values such as personal privacy, fair trials, and national security. He judges the Court's performance in defining basic freedoms: what has changed, how these rights are being expanded or circumscribed. Here is a brilliant book of commentary on our "first" rights under the Constitution and a call for an evolving and explicit law of the majority, when there are dissents. No one has written so forthrightly about these latest Court decisions of immense importance. No one is better qualified to tell us where we stand in our freedom of expression. Archibald Cox is Carl M. Loeb University Professor at Harvard.
