Social Partnership at Work : Workplace Relations in Post-Unification Germany Paperback / softback

Part of the Routledge Library Editions: The German Economy series

Paperback / softback

Description

This book, originally published in 1999, provided the first comparative, in-depth analysis of workplace relations in east and west Germany.

The collapse of communism and the ensuing process of reform means that East Germany provides a particularly interesting case, having experienced rapid and radical political and economic transformation, and representing an historically outstanding experiment of the shifting of an entire social system onto a different society.

This book examines the success of the institutional transfer of west German labour organisations into east Germany workplaces and addresses central questions such as : Can capitalist labour institutions be imposed on a former communist workforce?

What conditions determine the success or failure of these institutions?

Can 'social partnership/ between capital and labour be learned?
