Workers, Managers, and Technological Change: Emerging Patterns of
Labor Relations contributes significantly to an important subject.
Technological change is one of the most powerful forces
transforming the American industrial relations In fact, the
synergistic relationships between technology and indus system.
trial relations are so complex that they are not well or completely
understood. We know that the impact of technology, while not
independent of social forces, already has been profound: it has
transformed occupations, creating new skills and destroying others;
altered the power relationships between workers and managers; and
changed the way workers learn and work. Tech nology also has made
it possible to decentralize some economic activities out of large
metropolitan areas and into small towns, rural areas, and other
coun tries. Most important, information technology makes it
possible for interna tional corporations to operate on a global
basis. Indeed, some international corporations, especially those
based in the United States, are losing their national identities,
detaching the welfare of corporations from that of particu lar
workers and communities. Internationalization, facilitated by
information technology, has trans formed industrial relations
systems. A major objective of the traditional American industrial
relations system was to take labor out of competition."
