Abstract

This paper explores six factors which, when taken together, explain not only the survival of the ILO since its creation in 1919, but also its capacity to maintain relevance and legitimacy, despite often adverse circumstances in which it has operated. Whilst focusing primarily on the post-1980 period, it identifies strands of organisation and strategic positioning which have been central to ILO thinking since 1919.
