Human Resource Management (HRM) is fundamentally shaped by
institutional and cultural factors, such as the different political
environments and social philosophies of particular countries and
regions. By examining the various organizational aspects of
business life and systems of people management in Asia, the study
of HRM across the continent can, therefore, give us a greater
understanding of Asian societies, as well as the contemporary world
of work more generally. This handbook provides an up-to-date and
intellectually engaging overview of HRM in the Asian context.
Distinctive in its comprehensive coverage of traditional as well as
emerging topics of HRM, it analyzes important themes, such as the
regulatory framework for work and employment, religiosity, family
business, and gender. Using a comparative approach, it also
effectively highlights the unique features of each country's
attitudes towards HRM. Covering a range of themes and case studies,
sections include: * Institutional and cultural contexts, * Labour
regulation and industrial relations, * Thematic and functional HRM,
* HRM in selected Asian countries, such as China, Japan, Vietnam,
India, and Singapore. Written in a highly accessible style, this
book will be useful to students and scholars of Human Resource
Management, Asian Business, Economics, and Sociology.
