  • Bureaucracy, work organization, and the transition to entrepreneurship

    Open AccessJacob Rubæk Holm, Kristian Nielsen et al.ARTICLESmall Business Economics2025

    This article establishes a link between international differences in the organization of work and modes of regulation of labor markets within Europe. The article operates with four forms of work organization (discretionary learning, lean production, Taylorism, and simple or traditional). Through a factor analysis three dimensions of national labor market systems (flexible security, passive security, and job support) are defined. Using a multi-lev…
