This comprehensive introduction to industrial relations and employment relationships transcends specific national contexts. Readers will gain a broad knowledge base concerning the relations between governments, markets, and organizations upon reading Comparative Industrial Relations. Three key elements--time organization, wages, and skills--are discussed in an industry-specific manner, enabling the reader to see the changes over time. Also included is an engaging exploration about interest groups, organized interests, and bargaining processes within the workplace. A thorough introduction, containing concrete examples. Recommended for students of industrial relations and human resources management.
