Global Japanization?

de Tony Elger, Chris Smith, Chris Smith

"... Present[s] original case studies of work reorganization and workers' experiences within both Japanese companies and those of their competitors in diverse sectors and national settings. These studies provide a wide-ranging critique of conventional accounts of Japanese models of management and production, and their implications for employees. They offer new evidence and fresh perspectives on the role of 'transplants' in disseminating manufacturing innovations, and on the responses of non-Japanese firms in reorganizing production operations and industrial relations."--Back cover.
