- a focus on the impact of globalization process in the East and Southeast Asia which is becoming more significant in the new economy
- prepared by local Asian research scholars
- focuses on the manufacturing and service sectors, such as auto-related industries, electronics, banking, telecommunications and IT-related, etc
This collection of work by leading scholars investigates the impact of the globalization process on some selected Asian economies and societies. With particular focus on the role of institutional factors such as labour unions or workers’ associations, case studies are presented on labour-management relations at the workplace that have evolved to cope with globalization. The cases describe labour institutions in the society as a social force that acts as a catalyst for societal democracy and for industrial democracy at the workplace. These cases provide descriptions of the changes in the management’s stance and approaches towards labour unions in the selected countries as well as at the organizational level over the last three decades when much of the industrialization process has occurred in Asia.
