Hiroaki Richard Watanabe

Labour Market Deregulation in Japan and Italy

Worker Protection Under Neoliberal Globalisation

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This book seeks to explain the differences in labour market deregulation policies between Japan and Italy, despite the fact that the two countries share a number of similar political, social, and labour market (if not cultural) characteristics. Uniquely, it takes a political, rather than economic or sociological perspective to provide a theoretical and empirical analysis of the processes of labour market deregulation in the two countries and as such will appeal to students and scholars of Japanese politics, Italian politics, political economy and comparative politics.
