Throughout, employment relations are set within the framework of the overall relationship between firms, markets, interest organizations and governments.
Comparative Industrial and Employment Relations will be essential reading for students of industrial relations and for those involved in human resource management and personnel management seeking a wider perspective on the context of industrial and employment relations.
