  • More about Industrial Relations in the Future: Trends and Possibilities in Britain over the Next Decade


Industrial Relations in the Future provides an overview of potential developments in Britain's industrial relations system into the 1990s, based on reviews from three contrasting traditions. The ultimate outcome depends on the policies and actions of organized labor, management, and governments, as well as wider social movements.

Publisher: Taylor & Francis Ltd


Industrial Relations in the Future, first published in 1984, offers a comprehensive glimpse into the probable developments of Britain's industrial relations system into the 1990s. Written by esteemed scholars from various fields, the book serves as a foundation for further in-depth analysis and spirited debate on critical issues shaping the nation's future.

The three main sections, authored by distinguished scholars, provide insightful reviews from three distinct traditions: mainstream industrial relations, industrial sociology, and management. These accounts are remarkably complementary, as they explore key themes such as collective bargaining, managerial strategies, union responses, and government behavior within the broader context of economic, political, and social transformations.

The authors emphasize that the ultimate outcome of these developments will largely depend on the policies, actions, and interventions of organized labor, management, governments, and potentially broader social movements. This book is a vital resource for scholars and researchers specializing in labor economics, industrial sociology, economics, and public policy, as it sheds light on the complex interplay between these stakeholders and their impact on the future of industrial relations in Britain.
