520 $aAndrew Gordon goes to the core of the Japanese enterprise system, the workplace, and reveals a complex history of contest and confrontation. The Japanese model produced a dynamic economy that owed as much to coercion as to happy consensus. Managerial hegemony was achieved only after a bitter struggle that undermined the democratic potential of postwar society. The book draws on examples across Japanese industry, but focuses in depth on iron and steel.
520 8 $aThis industry was at the center of the country's economic recovery and high-speed growth, and was a primary site of corporate managerial strategy and important labor union initiatives.
