Industrial Relations in Europe
Traditions and Transitions

Edited by:


432 pages | SAGE Publications Ltd
Through a coordinated analysis of industrial relations in specific European Nations, Industrial Relations in Europe offers a representative, up-to-date and dynamic understanding of the subject. Across the individual national case studies, a range of common elements are examined: + the differing roles of governments, business and labor as actors in the industrial relations system, and their mutual relationships + the dynamics of collective bargaining, conflict, consultation, and worker participation + the overall performance of industrial relations in economic, social, and political terms These issues are addressed within the wider context of changes affecting industrial relations in Europe in the 1990Æs: European unification, the globalization of production and markets, the fragmentation of societies in the post-industrial era, and the crisis of welfare states. Industrial Relations in Europe provides a comprehensive introduction to the subject that will be invaluable for students, scholars, and practitioners in economics, business and management, political science, sociology, or law.

`Each chapter is tidily and logically sectionalised. Text-boxes highlight key features of any given system, such as the voluntaristic tradition in the UK, the central role of state involvement in France, the strength of German employers' associations, or the scala mobile inflation-adjustment mechanism in Italy. The tables covering single countries in the chapters themselves are supplemented by a table appendix providing comparative data for all the countries on 30 or so dimensions. I estimate the bibliography at just under 600 items, most of them very or fairly recent, with what a quick sampling suggests is a very high degree of documentary accuracy.... What a staggering people the Dutch are when it come to languages! If only some of us wrote so fluently in English as this team does. Multiple library copies all round please, and a three-star rating on reading lists' - BUIRA Newsletter
