The Internet, Organizational Change and Labor - The Challenge of Virtualization (Hardcover)

The Internet, Organizational Change and Labor challenges assumptions about the advantages of the virtual workplace, and describes the uses of the Internet that advance organizational performance and economic equality. It incorporates both managerial and employee perspectives and evaluates the impact of the Internet on human resources and the balance of power between labour and management.
The Internet is considered both in terms of how it has allowed a mobilization of the workforce, leading to less cohesive and more vulnerable working conditions, but also how it facilitates the dissemination of information and knowledge and accelerates organizational analysis, innovation and improvement.
This book draws practical conclusions but is grounded in the philosophy of knowledge and organizations. It is essential reading for anyone interested in the fields of human resource management and employee relations, technology management, managing information systems and organization theory.
