Produktbeschreibung

The United States, Germany, and Japan--the world's three most powerful and successful free market societies--differ strikingly in how their governments relate to their economies. This book reports the results of collaborative research by three teams investigating the social organization and policy-making processes of national labor policy domains in the United States, Germany, and Japan during the 1980's.
