Recenzii
The analysis is detailed and clear, and there are nice thematic links and relationships between the chapters. The competing unitary/pluralist, organizing/partnership analytic perspectives are developed to good effect through the chapters, as is the discussion about voice in relation to Hall and Soskices varieties of capitalism. This overlap across the chapters, and the different viewpoints expressed in them, is useful for stimulating thought. The writing style should be relatively easy for students to digest, and certainly some of the chapters would be ideal for undergraduate teaching material. On this basis, the book would be an excellent library resource for those researching, teaching or learning about employment relations and voice.
There are now a lot of voices in the employee voice field. Finding a Voice at Work? stands out by bringing together an accomplished set of authors to provide diverse perspectives in a single book. From conceptual foundations to debates over British trade union strategies to perspectives from Europe and beyond, the stimulating chapters deepen the readers understanding of the fundamental question, why does workplace voice matter and which versions work best? I highly recommend this insightful collection.
This book offers important and novel insights into work and employment relations. It is essential reading for those interested in such vital workplace issues as: unions, voice, communications, performance, consultation, participation, employee involvement, and engagement.
Finding a Voice at Work? will no doubt become a benchmark text for all those researching and teaching the changing nature of employment relations. With an impressive list of leading contributors, the book examines the key question of why voice still matters for employment relations and society from a conceptual, empirical and comparative standpoint. It offers a sharp and compelling analysis for why employee voice should be at the centre of public policy debate.
