Analyses the impact of 'Japanese-style' management techniques such
as lean production, teamworking, kaizen ('continuous improvement')
and business unionism on factory workers. Investigates different
facets of the organization of the labour process and employment
relations within fifteen Japanese transplants in South Wales, and
systematically analyses the political process of emulation in a
British brownfield plant. Emphasises in particular the impact of
the restructuring of workplace relations on both individual groups
of workers and Collective labour organization. Provides a
penetrating insight into the reality of factory life in the 1990s,
by incorporating descriptions of shop-floor observations,
comprehensive quantitive data and revealing comments from different
grades of shop-floor workers, office workers and management.
