Age of Democracy: The Politics of Post-Fordism

Confronted by challenges from conservative governments and an array of new economic and ideological forces, the once strong labor movement project of social emancipation is today plagued by serious doubt and confusion. This book discusses how the labor and social movements can best overcome these challenges, examining the Social Democratic heritage; the concept of associative democracy; the "democratization" of capital, industry, technology, and social programs; and the future of trade unions, the public sector, and social movements.Mathews, John is the author of 'Age of Democracy: The Politics of Post-Fordism', published 1990 under ISBN 9780195549232 and ISBN 0195549236.
