Business and Labour in Korea

Chaebols, their Association and Industrial Relations

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

South Korea has rapidly emerged as a world economic power, within which chaebols - large family-controlled business groups such as Hyundai and Samsung - have been the dominant economic force, with a powerful political influence. This book traces the impact the chaebols have had on the development of South Koreäs industrial relations system from the 1960s to the present. The book also relates developments in industrial relations to changing political circumstances, from military dictatorships to democracy, to a world with more autonomous governments, more militant unions, and more pluralistic and even radical industrial relations.
