Policy Concertation and Social Partnership in Western Europe: Lessons for the Twenty-first Century
Policy concertation - the determination of public policy by means of agreements struck between governments, employers and trade unions - continues to thrive in Western Europe despite the impact of liberalizing trends that were expected to lead to its demise. This volume brings together a team of 23 experts with the aim to undertake paired historical and political studies of policy concertation in ten West European countries, which were then subje…
Capitalism: A Very Short Introduction
The word 'capitalism' is heard and used frequently, but what is capitalism about, and what does it mean? Capitalism: A Very Short Introduction discusses the history and development of capitalism through several detailed case studies, ranging from the 'tulipomania' of 17th-century Holland, the Great Depression of the 1930s, and the impact of the global financial crisis that started in 2007–8. It looks at the different forms that capitalism takes i…
Capitalism: A Very Short Introduction
This book deals with the basic issues that have preoccupied thinkers from Marx and Weber through to Cuddens and Soros. It also examines issues of great contemporary importance, such as globalization and ecological crisis.
Globalisation, the Nation-State and Global Society
This article examines the notion that globalisation has resulted in the decline of the nation-state. It argues that during most of its history globalisation was in fact associated with the rise of the nation-state through the construction of overseas empires that extended and strengthened it. The development of global political organization has reinforced the nation-state through the growth of international organizations based on the principle of…
Did British Society Change Character in the 1920s or the 1980s
This is a response to Runciman's reply to my critique of his 1993 article. I argue that although the First World War brought about many changes in British society, it did not initiate a new stage in its development, for these changes were largely an acceleration of existing tendencies. Runciman's argument that the similarities between the 1930s and the 1980s show that British capitalism was essentially the same in both periods does not allow for …
British Capitalism in the 1980s: Old Times or New Times
Cet article conteste l'affirmation developpee dans cette meme revue par Runciman, affirmation selon laquelle le caractere du capitalisme anglais n'a pas reellement change depuis la fin de la Premiere Guerre Mondiale. L'A. estime que les changements survenus au cours des annees 1980 ont ete plus etendus et plus a long-terme que ne le reconnait Runciman. Un « capitalisme dirige » qui s'etait developpe depuis le dix-neuvieme siecle a pris fin dans l…

The Bureaucratization of the State and the Rise of Japan
The rise of Japan is explained in terms of the development of an exceptionally bureaucratic state. This resulted from the sixteenthcentury emergence of a ruling salariat separated from the land, the eventual overthrow of the pre-modern state by a revolutionary section of this salariat, and its subsequent building of a modern state. The early military expansion of Japan was directed in a highly rational manner by these bureaucrats. In the 1 930s, …
Labour Movement Theory Versus Corporatism: Social Democracy in Sweden
This article assesses the challenge from 'labour movement theory' to the conventional 'corporatist' interpretation of Social Democratic Sweden. It begins by outlining the theoretical debate. It then examines the labour movement's compromise with capitalism and the issues of redistribution, codetermination and economic democracy. It argues that the corporatist interpretation of the period from the 1930s to the 1960s stands up well to criticism. Th…

Industrial Conflict in Britain and Sweden
In 'Strikes and Industrial Conflict'2 Geoffrey Ingham re-examines and modifies the classic Ross and Hartman thesis of the decline of the strike. He argues that although Ross and Hartman were clearly wrong so far as Britain is concerned, they were right in the case of the Scandinavian societies where the strike has 'withered in all its forms', though he finds their explanation of this 'withering' unsatisfactory. He develops his own explanation by …
Class Conflict in Sweden
The relationship between the dominating federations of the manual workers' unions and the employers' associations is outlined. It is then argued that relations at plant level have largely escaped the control of the central institutional framework and bear important similarities to plant relations elsewhere, in spite of institutional differences. The conflict between the central union authorities and the rank and file is examined through a case st…
